Miss Mona Violin came home from the luthier hospital today! And what a difference. She had a bridge-tuck operation (similar to a tummy-tuck :D ) and is recuperating nicely. String crossings are much much easier and I can actually hit double stops now! Also the string height was lowered and is now set exactly to standard -- yes I measured to make sure -- which makes playing in higher positions actually doable.
The local luthier did an outstanding job and charged me half what I thought would be the rock bottom price. And a week off did my arthritic finger a great deal of good.
All in all, it is a very good day in violin land!
