Perfecting Over Seven Years

It takes a long time to master perfection - a minimum of seven years in fact. This is how long the maple is aged to ensure unparalleled excellence. By using specific treatments to retain its durability, the wood’s natural ageing results in a darkened tone with more complex overtones. The top of the of the Concert Deluxe is constructed from a close-grain, hand-carved piece of spruce for a brighter tone with outstanding projection. This classic combination of maple and spruce results in a versatile sound that works well in all genres and is perfect for performance straight away.

Contemporary Meets Traditional

Wood Concert Deluxe Violins are traditionally styled instruments with modern performance adjustments. This violin features a body based on a classic acoustic violin, with subtle modern updates. The volume knob is placed conveniently on the underside rib, making it easily accessible when playing and out of the way of your bowing arm. The Concert violin utilises a slightly thicker bridge for enhanced fidelity and to enrich the tone. For an added touch of luxury, the Concert Deluxe includes Witter finetune pegs to ensure tuning is never an issue.

Tru-Tone Pickup

The Tru-Tone pickup is known for defining the electro-acoustic violin sound. Perfectly suited for live environments, the Tru-Tone pickups have a high output signal which is ideal for guitar amps. The frequency balance focuses on high-end clarity, while tightening the midrange for a stable, more natural sound. The Tru-Tone pickups are a passive system, making them ideal for live use as they don’t require batteries. The pickup is placed discreetly under the bridge for a clear signal transfer that registers the violin’s body resonance.

Included Case

Included with the Concert Series is a lightweight fitted case to protect your violin when not in use. The exterior of the case is lined with an unassuming black cover, and features a large pocket which is ideal for accessories. The case is sealed with a robust zip, and for added protection has a velcro strap. Capable of carrying up to two bows, the interior of the case also features a smaller pocket for even more accessories.
