Abstract
The Museum collection of the Staatliches Institut für Musikforschung in Berlin houses a pandurina built by Giovanni Smorsone. However, this instrument came to the museum from within the circle of a violin forger. Investigations have proved that it is not a forgery. Nevertheless, alterations were found that do not match the original state of the instrument.
