Maple Leaf Strings Burled Maple Craftsman Collection Violin 4/4 Size

The one-piece back and ribs of this instrument are constructed from unique burled maple wood, created in a tree when growth abnormalities occur. These growth aberrations, especially when amplified by a beautifully applied spirit varnish lend the instrument a striking appearance, one whose precise grain pattern is unique and unrepeatable. This instills a personal relationship with the instrument, and a pride of ownership that will inspire practice and great care of the instrument.

This instrument, however, is also designed to not just look beautiful: it plays as well as or better than most other instruments in its price point, and its voice is harmonically rich and possessed of tremendous dynamic range. It is as expressive as your technique. A complimentary protective foam case completes the package.
