7/8 sized master violin "CV Selectio" Opus 17 no.3

This new 7/8 sized master violin features all of the finest properties of our outstanding CV Selectio model Opus 17 for rising talents and demanding musicians with somewhat smaller hands. This 7/8 violin is perfect for those who want a more petite size but do not want to compromise in sound.

The greatest artisanal care was applied to the choice of tone woods for this 7/8-sized violin, which was crafted in keeping with modern standards of contemporary instrument making and which has a magnificently luminous yellow-brown varnish with delicate hints of orange. Here an appealing aesthetic joins with an outstanding acoustic profile that will satisfy the highest standards. A subtle elegance can be seen in the finely to moderately grained spruce of the top and the delicate flames of the one-piece maple back which meet their culmination in the lovingly crafted purfling, sound holes and scroll, all of which reflect the work of a meticulous and well-trained hand. Younger soloists will find a wealth of expressive opportunities in the deeply-rooted strength of this violin's radiant and sweet voice; its vibrating string length measures 31.6 cm. Selected by professional musicians and the experts at our workshop for restoration, this 7/8th size violin is the perfect choice for studying music and taking the first steps towards life as a career musician; and thanks to our trade-in guarantee, the instrument can open doors at a later date for those who want to graduate to a full-sized instrument with a historic provenance. Even for semi-professional needs, however, this 7/8 violin is our response to the growing need for instruments with slightly smaller contours.
