We stock both Enrico Student Plus (pictured above left) and Enrico Student Extra (pictured above right) Violins, Violas, Cellos and Double Basses, to ensure we have the perfect instrument for every budget. Each instrument comes in a case with a bow, and has been professionally set up and is ready to play. To find out which is right for your family, come in and try them out today.

Hidersine Vivente Series

Created for the ambitious beginner, the Hidersine Vivente instrument outfits offer higher-quality tonewoods and genuine hardwoods that will happily see students through their first few grades in style. Available in 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 and Full Size, we will be able to set you up with exactly the right instrument for your child.

Gliga I, II & III and St Romani

Made in Romania, the Gliga III is a great beginner’s violin that comes with FPS shaped hard case, FPS Brazilwood bow with Ebony frog and horsehair and Pirastro Tonica Strings.

The Gliga II is an intermediate student range with features a flamed maple back, sides and neck. The Violin Outfit comes with Pirastro Violino strings and Wittner Ultralight tailpiece. Supplied in lightweight oblong case (with backpack straps) and Articul carbonfibre horsehair bow.

The Gliga I Violin Outfit is for the more advanced student.   It has similar specs to the Gliga II but comes with a better grade of timbers and delivers a full range of tones for both solo and orchestral work.

As the newest addition to the Gliga range, the Saint Romani represents outstanding value for a European-made instrument. Using the same body made from the same solid tone woods as found in the Gliga III, the Saint Romani has a hard wearing nitro varnish which is then cut back to a pleasing satin finish making it ideal for the student level which tends to be subjected to more punishment.

Ibanez 2021 New Arrivals

 

New Models for a New Year

Since the late 1950s Ibanez has been shaking up the Guitar world with their leading-edge designs and state-of-the-art technology. And 2021 is shaping up to be no exception - just take a look at these...

Coming Soon: Prestige AZ2204N

Taking adaptability to new extremes, the AZ series has established itself and carved out a place that spans everything from the warmest blues licks, to the most intense, shred-heavy metal riffs. Carrying this ethos forward, the AZ line embodies time-tested Ibanez innovation and player-focused features like a smooth, oval neck grip, a well-balanced asymmetrical body shape, and the neck heel allowing for unrivaled playability.

Coming Mid February: AF55 Lefty

The AF is the most traditional design within the Artcore series. The full-hollow body construction means there are no sound blocks in the body. This construction method produces a rich, complex tone, expressed with a pure voice and full body, the tonal characteristics most highly desired among the discerning Jazz player.

Coming Early March: RGD7521

The RGD is Ibanez's ultimate metal machine. The demands of down-tuning require a specifically designed responsiveness not found in ”normal” guitars. To optimize for the rich, desirable thickness of tone that down-tuning produces, we extended the neck by one inch to a 26.5” scale. Longer-than standard yet not overly long. The neck is still considered a ”fast” neck for speed soloing. Extra-deep cutaways grant comfortable access to the necks highest notes.

Coming Early May: RGB300 & 305

While the electric bass is very much its own animal, it shares a common lineage and character with its 6-stringed cousins. For decades, the RG has stood at the center of what represents the prototypical Ibanez electric guitar. This iconic design is recognized as the foundational instrument for modern metal guitar playing, yet bass players have often had to look on when it comes to this venerable shred-machine: NO LONGER! Now, bassists will again experience the heavy tones and lightning-fast RG playability with the RGB series.
