Description The bridge is cracked, and I was wondering if it is worth it to repair it or not? What would the violin be worth if it were in good condition? As is? Any input would be much appreciated! I have included some pictures.

I'll try again to post a reply here ... I can't give you an appraisal on your violin , but I can tell you that replacing a bridge is common & is not too expensive to do . I've replaced one on my own violin , in the past , and although I did the notching for the strings - I paid only for the bridge . -regularfella2
