Beautiful instrument with minor setup needs

The wood quality is stunning and the sound is deep. I had to adjust the bridge slightly to my preference, but that is normal for handcrafted instruments. Very happy overall.

Perfect for my conservatory audition

I purchased this for my final exams, and the judges commented on the rich projection. The craftsmanship by the Song brand team is truly professional grade.

Exceptional tone for Baroque repertoire

The warmth and clarity of this viola are outstanding. The 15-inch size is perfect for my frame, and the handcrafted details are evident in every corner. It responds beautifully to gut strings.

Great value for a handmade viola

Solid construction and a very pleasing aesthetic. It takes a little time to break in, but the sound is opening up nicely after a few weeks of playing.

Superior build quality

As a luthier myself, I can appreciate the precision in the arching and varnish application. This is a serious instrument for serious players.

Exceeded expectations

I was hesitant to buy online without trying first, but the description was accurate. The resonance is incredible, especially in the lower register.

5 FAQ

Q: What type of strings are installed from the factory?

A: The instrument comes strung with high-quality synthetic core strings suitable for both modern and Baroque setups. Many players choose to swap these for pure gut strings for authentic period performance.

Q: Does this viola come with a case and bow?

A: This listing is for the viola only. We recommend purchasing a hard case and a Baroque-style bow separately to ensure the best protection and sound match.

Q: What is the return policy if the size feels wrong?

A: We offer a 30-day return policy provided the instrument is in its original condition with no damage. Please contact us within 7 days of delivery if you wish to initiate a return or exchange.

Q: Can this instrument handle steel strings if I prefer them?

A: Yes, the neck and bridge are constructed to withstand the tension of steel strings, although the instrument is voiced primarily for synthetic or gut strings typical of Baroque music.

Q: Is the fingerboard made of real ebony or dyed wood?

A: We use only genuine ebony for the fingerboard, tailpiece, and pegs to ensure durability and proper friction for tuning stability.
