This viola is for the advancing student — or a beginner whose parents want the best for their children. This is not a “beginner” viola or a “violin shaped object” (VSO); the ML100 is focused on advanced tonal qualities, aesthetics, and ease of play. The ML100 is unlike beginner instruments which are focused on affordability, by use of cheaper materials and less concern with quality craftsmanship or tonal characteristics.
Features this viola boasts include:
A Glasser composite tailpiece with built-in fine-tuners — ensues a proper setup and intonation,
A torte orchestral tonal-color mute,
D’addario Prelude strings,
An expertly carved and fitted Ecoliar Despiau France bridge,
Freshly resurfaced fingerboard (correctly scooped and relieved) and oiled for richness and longevity,
Cleaned and polished the W.E. HILL & SONS varnish cleaner and conservation wax,
This viola has been fully worked-over and setup, including a top-shelf sound-post and new strings. This viola is ready for school, lessons or just enjoying. This viola sounds great and has good projection.
Comes with a hard-shell, plush lined case and a sponge case humidifier, an Everest shoulder-rest and a Glasser bow. Yours to own and study with for $400.
