Stentor Student I violin outfit

Features:

All Stentor Student instruments are crafted from carved solid wood, which is an indication of quality. Carved solid wood allows for the top and back to actually be "tuned" to a pitch, which increases the resonance of the instrument -- it gives a much better sound! Many student instruments are made of pressed timber which has a short useable life.

  • machine-carved solid spruce front and maple back, ribs and neck (the scroll is hand carved)

  • some hand shaping and finishing, which improves quality

  • stained black rosewood fingerboard

  • high-quality dark rosewood tuning pegs

  • alloy tailpiece with 4 built-in fine tuners assure stable, trouble-free tuning

  • adjustable nylon tailgut

  • steel rope-core strings, which tend to stay in tune longer than other string types -- great for students

The outfit also includes:

  • good student-quality wood bow with natural horsehair. The frog is ebony, which is unusual for an instrument in this price range.

  • lightweight, shaped, blue canvas-covered case with carry handle and shoulder strap. It has clips for the bow, a full-length music pocket and an accessory compartment.

  • box of rosin
