Vivo Neo Violins & Violas

The Vivo range of stringed instruments has been crafted to deliver a student instrument that looks, feels, sounds and plays well above its price tag. During extensive consultation with the String community, including Players, Teachers and Violin Luthiers, the Vivo brief was to hone in on the needs of a quality student instrument. And now it’s here.

The Solid Spruce top and Solid Maple back and Sides delivers a rich tone. The inlaid Purfling, Ebony Fingerboard and Pegs combine to give the instrument the classic traditional look. Whilst the Ultra-Lightweight composite tailpiece brings it into the modern world.

We carry Vivo Neo Series Violins & Violas in all popular student sizes.

Raggetti RV2 Violins

Unlike most other entry level instruments the Raggetti RV2 has been designed and made with close reference to traditional violin making. Workers in the Raggetti factory have been trained in the traditional Cremonese fashion in which they carefully graduate the European spruce top and maple back to achieve the best tone possible. To match the quality of the European spruce a high grade, close grained African ebony is used to make the Swiss-shape pegs and the all-important fingerboard. For performance and tuning stability a French-made Aubert #5 bridge is custom cut and fitted for each instrument and complimented with the inclusion of an ultra light tailpiece with in-built finetuners. Once all these elements are put together the result is a student outfit highly regarded by string specialists for tone and playability.

We carry Raggetti RV2 Violins in all popular student sizes.

Gliga III Violins & Violas

Award winning violin maker, Mr Vasile Gliga, has been creating instruments since 1980 in his workshop in central Romania. Starting from the humble beginnings of working in a tiny workshop hand-crafting just two violins per month, his talent and passion for instrument making has been the driving factor, leading him to grow the now internationally recognised Gliga brand. 

We carry Gliga III Series Violins and Violas, the best seller in the Gliga series. An affordable package delivering quality without compromise. Each European made instrument comes as an outfit with Pirastro Tonica strings, Aubert bridge and Wittner Ultralight tailpiece. Supplied in FPS woodshell case.
