Strad Huberman
The Gibson ex-Huberman Stradivarius of 1713 is an antique violin fabricated by Antonio Stradivari of Cremona.
The Gibson, while owned by Bronisław Huberman, was stolen twice. The first time the violin was returned shortly after the theft; the second theft occurred in 1936 backstage at Carnegie Hall. The instrument was recovered 50 years later.
The Gibson ex-Huberman is currently owned by violinist Joshua Bell. He bought in 2003 for just over $ 2 million. Today its cost is estimated in excess of $ 10 million.
The "LCG Huberman” is an exact copy of its original manufactured from highest quality aged tone wood giving it the same sound as the original. Several esteemed violinists have expressed their praise (see Testimonials).

Siqi Yu (Shanghai), presently in her postgraduate studies at the Hochschule für Musik in Frankfurt, is playing the Paganini Caprice 21 in A Major on a replica of the Strad Hubermann built from Cremonawood™.
