There are thirteen known extant Stradivari violas.

Antonio Stradivari built between 70 and 80 cellos in his lifetime, of which 63 are extant.

Five complete guitars by Stradivari exist, and a few fragments of others—including the neck of a sixth guitar, owned by the Conservatoire de Musique in Paris. These guitars have ten (doubled, five-course) strings, which was typical of the era.

The only surviving Stradivarius harp is the arpetta (little harp), owned by San Pietro a Maiella Music Conservatory in Naples, Italy.

There are two known extant Stradivari mandolins. The Cutler-Challen Choral Mandolino of 1680 is in the collection of the National Music Museum at the University of South Dakota in Vermillion, South Dakota. The other, dated ca. 1706, is owned by private collector Charles Beare of London. Known as Mandolino Coristo, it has eight strings.
