Simon Joseph 15.5" "Master" Viola, handmade in RO

Description


Simon Joseph 39.5 cm (15.5") "Meister" concert viola (viola)

GUARNERI model
One-piece back, beautiful tonewoods
New building (not yet imported), handwork from Transylvania 2020

Very beautiful 39.5 cm viola with top made of valuable, evenly grained hazel spruce. The one-piece, strongly flamed back, neck, scroll and pegbox as well as the sides are made of maple. Tonewoods that have been deposited for many years and have therefore dried naturally. All wooden surfaces are processed exclusively with scrapers (not with sandpaper), so that the beauty of the wood comes into its own right down to the pores. The beautiful craftsmanship was then underlined by a hand-applied varnish on an antique basis. Very beautiful golden-brown spirit varnish based on an old family recipe, imitating old Italian varnish design.

In terms of sound, this viola is distinguished by its full, warm, balanced sound.
An instrument that is suitable for professional players, but also for experienced amateurs and talented students. After all, every player benefits from a high-quality instrument.
This viola gains considerable character and volume during the playing-in phase, as befits carefully crafted instruments and has shown in our many years of experience with the master violin maker.
