The ML-500 Recital Series Violin Outfit from Strobel offers exceptional quality and sound for violinists looking to elevate their skills. Hand-carved from premium tonewoods, the spruce top produces a warm, resonant tone that is enhanced by high-quality Thomastik Dominant strings. Finished with an antiqued, hand applied spirit varnish, the ML-500 has a distinctive aged appearance that matches its sophisticated sound. Premium Tonewoods Resonate with Depth and Clarity The ML-500 is crafted from seasoned tonewoods, including a fully carved spruce top and highly flamed maple back, ribs, and scroll. The result is an instrument with tonal depth and projection that brings subtle details to the fore. Each note rings with a clarity that inspires nuanced playing. Spruce Top Amplifies Sound The premium spruce top is carefully graduated to enhance the violin's tonal response across all registers. Notes in the lower register are full and sonorous, while the higher register sings with a bell-like quality. The spruce effectively amplifies the instrument's sound, allowing for a wider range of dynamics that can fill both small recital halls and larger performance spaces. German-Style Varnish Provides Distinctive Look Finished with an antiqued spirit varnish, the ML-500 has a uniquely aged appearance that gives it a timeless visual appeal. The varnish brings out the natural beauty of the tonewoods, highlighting their grain patterns and hues. Its artisanal quality matches the level of craftsmanship found throughout the instrument. Thomastik Dominant Strings Deliver Nuanced Tone The ML-500 is strung with high-quality Thomastik Dominant strings, chosen for their ability to produce a balanced and nuanced tone. The combination of Thomastik G, D, A and Pirastro Gold E strings offers optimal tension and responsiveness, allowing for a wide range of articulations and dynamics. Each note speaks with a clarity that inspires expressive playing.” Features: Top: Spruce Back & Sides: Maple Neck: Maple Fingerboard: Ebony Fittings: Boxwood Tailpiece: Boxwood Chin Rest: Guarneri Style Boxwood Bridge: Despiau Finish: Spirit Bow: Select Nickel-Silver Mounted Pernambuco Case/Bag: Oblong Strings: Thomastik Dominant G, D, A and Pirastro Gold E Purfling: Inlaid Violin outfit will include one of the two bows shown, or take both for an additional $50.
