PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
- Please note: Images for reference this instrument comes as an instrument only and does not include strings. Head over to our viola strings page to find your perfect set. G.P Maggini G.P Maggini has become synonymous with quality sound and feel. As a luthier in the 1600s Maggini focused his work on creating violas that were subtly forward thinking and innovative. The Dumas model has a forceful sound with powerful projection but also produces subtle darkness that makes it ideal for romantic pieces. The Dumas workmanship displays a detailed look with stunning binding patterns. Although this model is an elaborate design The Sound Posts copy remains easy to play for students requiring a charismatic voice. Maggini remains an inspiration of instrument craftsmanship and this version continues his legacy. Stunning Tonewoods The use of maple and spruce is a tried and tested combination used in superior quality violins. This combination produces a focused powerful sound with plenty of body and tonal warmth which will only improve over time. The woods are hand selected based on their age and narrowness of grain before being hand carved for a sound and appearance full of heritage. The distance between the grain affects the resonance of the instrument with a narrower grain resulting in a more responsive full bodied and weighted sound with a strong tonal core. The maple back and sides help provide a hard-wearing violin that works with the narrow grain spruce to provide a unique instrument with incredible response projection and full tonal body.
