Perfect starter instrument for my daughter

We bought this for our 12-year-old who just started viola lessons. The tiger-stripe finish is absolutely gorgeous in person. It came well-packaged and the setup was decent right out of the box. Great value for the price.

Good sound, needs minor adjustment

The tone is warm and resonant for a beginner model. I did have to take it to a luthier to adjust the bridge and soundpost slightly, but that is common with instruments in this price range. Very happy with the purchase overall.

Beautiful craftsmanship

I am an adult learner returning to music after 20 years. This viola exceeded my expectations. The flamed maple back is stunning, and it projects sound very well in our community orchestra practice.

Excellent value package

Having everything included (bow, rosin, case) made this such an easy buy. The bow hair is decent quality, and the shoulder rest fits comfortably. My son loves the look of the tiger stripes.

Solid performance viola

Used this for a semester of college music theory. It holds its tune well and has a rich lower register. Not a professional concert instrument, but definitely a solid choice for serious students.

Decent but heavy

The sound is fine for a student instrument, but the body feels a bit heavier than my previous rental. It might take some getting used to for younger players. The case included is sturdy though.

5 FAQ

Q: Can this be used for professional performances?

A: While designed primarily for beginners and students, many intermediate players use the MV68 for rehearsals. For professional solo performances, we recommend upgrading to our Master Series line.

Q: Is the case hard or soft?

A: This model comes with a durable hard-shell case featuring a plush interior, backpack straps, and an external pocket for sheet music and accessories.

Q: How long does shipping take?

A: Standard shipping usually takes 3-5 business days within the continental US. All instruments are carefully inspected and packed in double-boxes to ensure safe delivery.

Q: Does the included bow need re-hairing soon?

A: The included bow comes with fresh horsehair and is ready to play. With regular student use, it typically lasts 6 to 12 months before needing re-hairing, depending on usage frequency.

Q: What size is this viola?

A: The Soyat MV68 is available in multiple sizes including 15", 15.5", and 16". Please select your preferred size from the dropdown menu before adding to cart.
