Possible plagiarism, needs rewrite edit

This article may have lifted parts of online articles verbatim without crediting the original authors. It needs to be checked and rewritten. I don't know the tags to put into the article. I may work on it later, but have a full plate right now rewriting other articles.Jacqke (talk) 17:06, 19 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Site some text appears to come from.

Maud Powell removed from Guad list edit

Maud Powell's instrument was not a Guadagini, but an excellent forgery by Gemunder. See reference here http://www.cozio.com/Instrument.aspx?id=2699 — Preceding unsigned comment added by UnkleFester (talkcontribs) 08:02, 30 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Bob Wills edit

In the Bob Wills piece there appears the following: "About this time Wills purchased and performed with an old Guadagnini violin that had once fetched $7,600 for $1,600, the equivalent of about $24,000 in 2009.[12] [28]" You may want to add him to the roster of Badagnani players, unless you can't stand to have the author of "I'm a Ding Dong Daddy from Dumas" and "Ida Red Likes the Boogie" associated with names like Joseph Joachim and Eugene Ysaye...

Just reading "San Antonio Rose" and so added Wills to the list. It's described as 157 yrs old, bought in 1941 so i assumed 1784. Says he bought for $3000, later giving it away and buying another for $5000. Can't find any info about where that fiddle is today, and whether or not the second was also a Guadagnini, though. --Notneils (talk) 18:50, 3 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Geringas' instrument edit

I can't find appropriate citations for the identity of David Geringas' cello - his page states that it was built in Parma but this is as unverified as the information here. As such, I have removed both locations until either can be proven. Fascinoma (talk) 01:00, 13 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Emiliano or Italian? edit

As it currently stands the lead reads "Giovanni Battista Guadagnini (or G. B. Guadagnini; Giambattista Guadagnini); (June 23, 1711 – September 18, 1786) was an Emiliano luthier, regarded[by whom?] as one of the finest craftsmen of string instruments in history."

My point of conjecture is that Emiliano be replaced by Italian in reference to his nationality. This seems to be standard in other articles in reference to historical figures who lived before the unification of their respective modern countries. For instance the article on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe describes him as German and the article on Dante calls him Italian. If there are no objections I will alter the article to reflect this practice. IrishStephen (talk) 18:00, 28 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Mari Silje Samuelsen added to Guad list edit

According to ASAF website (http://www.asaf.no) and the Samuelsen siblings' website (http://www.samuelsenmusic.com), Norwegian violinist Mari Silje Samuelsen plays a fine G. B. Guadagnini (Turin 1773) on loan from ASAF (Anders Sveaas charitable foundation, Oslo). Her Wikipedia pages in Norwegian, Spanish, Czech also mention it (https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mari_Silje_Samuelsen, https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mari_Silje_Samuelsen, https://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mari_Silje_Samuelsen).

Cello "Il Mendicante" edit

Does a cello by Guadagnini exist which is called "Il Mendicante"? -- Kaubuk (talk) 18:14, 18 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Assessment comment edit

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Giovanni Battista Guadagnini/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

Is Stradivari really generally considered the best? I would argue Guarneri del Gesu is generally regarded as a better maker, given the number of famous players who are said to practice with their Strads and perform with their Guarneris.
