A special gift for you if you are a brilliant Baroque violin player, chamber violinist, soloist, or self-employed musician: learn how to make your violin or viola sound €10,000 more expensive for FREE.
I know luthiers charging from €600 to €1000+ for the soundpost, and they may not appreciate me sharing this secret. Or some may. That's what I normally charge for a soundpost, and to do it properly on your violin worth tens or hundreds of thousands of euros, or in some occasions, millions, it takes an entire day and a half, if not more, to craft it, fit it in, play your violin in with the new soundpost, and fine-tune it so you get the absolutely best possible result your mastery needs. In other words, contrary to what some believe (the soundpost is just a piece of pencil worth a few pennies), it is one of the finest and most sophisticated parts in YOUR instrument. However, I am delighted to give this knowledge away to you for FREE so you can sound even more amazing starting tonight. Just create this gadget and be sure to use it expertly ( I am not in the business of selling these gadgets or even plans for them, it is extraordinarily simple, so you should be able to make something similar without any help in about 5 - 10 minutes).

Only touch the soundpost if you are an experienced and trained luthier. The first thing that happens if you don't know what you are doing is you can easily damage the F holes, ruining the instrument - and if you get it in the wrong place it will sound dreadful or damage the instrument with a sound post crack.

If you can't set a sound post, what are you going to do if yours falls over while on a trip (very common), or the day of a concert (not as uncommon as you think)? Buy a $50 plywood violin and practice setting the sound post. I like this guy's method, by the way. I was already not punching holes, just using a different tool that's a little more trouble. The relation between the sound post and bridge is similar to the relation between bow position and bridge. If they are close, the sound is brighter and louder but harsher. If you can adjust your bowing position, you can adjust your sound post. Since your sound post is of fixed height, if you don't trim it or cut a new one, getting it the right distance off-center takes care of itself. It only fits at one distance if it is true vertical.

Embarrassing but true, my violin fell/was dropped from a chair. The sound post shifted but over a period of about two weeks the plate vibrations pushed it back into its best location. I was very lucky!

You can also tie two pieces of string to the post. They then are pulled back and forth through the F holes, and get the post, the exact position, easily. It is even more important, to have the post, in the perfect position. Also, to angle the post, to conform to the angles on the top and bottom of the violin. I'm a luthier, and player. I always suspected, it is better to not have those indentations in the post, so thanks for this video.

How do you remove the tool when the sound post is in place; the nylon string is looped around the sound post? Do you just pull one end of the nylon at the handle of you tool with other end of the nylon being loose. The loose end would then slide down in the violin and back up again?
@badiarov
@badiarov 10 месяцев назад
Just pull the string out.

If my violin is sounding fine, is it necessary for a luthier to check and adjust the sound post once a year?
@badiarov
@badiarov 2 месяца назад
It might be a good idea. Good players make good sound no matter what, so even big problems can go unnoticed for years. If you checked it twice and learned that your soundpost does not move around, then you don't need to check it once a year, once in a while will do.

looks like it would work but- once in place it maybe hard to remove sliding over or under peg but if not the price is right/// I was thinking ( not being a builder or player ) a very small surgery clamp or something like that would work and would look good too but simple is usually better. just a thought does a violin absolutely need it again I'm not a builder / good video

How about carbon soundposts? Just curious :)
@badiarov
@badiarov Год назад
The speed of sound in carbon fiber seem to be 10.763 km/s (just under 11 km/s, according to www.osti.gov/), whereas in spruce, it is just 6.3 km/s (according to Lucchi, the maker of Lucchi meter). Does the speed of sound translate into the required mental/emotional connection between the instrument and the musician? This depends on the musician. Whether this is perceived as desired by the audience is another matter entirely. Musical experiences are complex, and success in the music field is not determined solely by the instrument or any part of it. Carbon fiber sound posts do exist. I hope this helps.

Well it is a great way to sell a book but if done properly the fibres of the post are undamaged, although they are parted a little, (even using a normal post setter) and the sound is not spoiled. Even the idea isn't new and in reality there is no significant difference.

@Shoshun2
@Shoshun2 Год назад
You are correct. Fitting of the post is very difficult to do owing to the asymmetrical cut required to perfectly fit the top and bottom to the curve of the wood surface inside the box. If too tight Or too ill fitting great damage can occur. The quality of sound is also dependent on this and position as well
