Well, it's a little hard to tell from that one,

all, just the other way around, and exactly the
same as if a left handed person was playing a
normal violin the normal way around. Like me.
That's what it looks like to me also, and I must
say I can't imagine anything else!
Part of the question here (and I do not know the
answer) is whether what we call the "bass bar"
does, in fact, need to be under the lowest
string, or whether it is simply a rib or bracing
against the tension of ALL the strings, which we
call a "bass bar" simply because it normally IS
under the lowest string? (Did that make any
sense?!)
