Reasonable prices that everyone can afford!

 
  • 1. Excellent Materials:

    Made from even-textured natural wood, it is easy to vibrate and quickly transmits sound, ensuring maximum resistance to deformation and cracking.

  • 2. Great Sound:

    The hand-carved Maple top and Basswood back and sides ensure a soft and deep tonality, with a sound that is both loud and stable.

  • 3. Comfortable Playing:

    The 16-inch size combined with fine craftsmanship and an Aluminium Alloy fingerboard, provides a perfect hand feel and a comfortable playing experience.

 

NOTE:

1. The bridge will not be pre-set to prevent damage during shipping.

2. The viola needs to be tuned each time before playing. When tuning, push the pegs inward to ensure they stay in place; sometimes extra force is needed to prevent the pegs from slipping.

3. The first time you use the bow, it needs to be rosined for 5 minutes (or 30-50 full passes). After every 4-6 hours of practice, reapply rosin to the bow.

4. After playing the viola, gently clean it with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth to remove rosin build-up on the strings and any dust, oil, or sweat.

Bridge Installation

Step 1

Loosen the strings slightly to avoid breaking them when placing the bridge.

Step 2

Align the notches on the bridge with all four violin strings.

Step 3

Hold the bottom of the bridge with both hands and stand it vertically on the panel.

Step 4

Place it in the middle of the F-holes and correspond to both notches horizontally of the "F" holes.

 

How to Adjust a Bow?

Pure horse hair

Adjust the tightness of the horse hair

The most curved part of the middle of the bow is about 0.4in from the hair

The bow can be used after being polished with rosin
