The Cremona SVA-130-14 is a 1/2-size (14") viola set from the Premier Novice Series, perfectly suited for young students taking their first steps in the world of viola.

Featuring a polished ebony fingerboard and fittings, an oil-finished neck, and carefully adjusted string height and neck arch, this viola supports a natural playing position and correct fingering. The set comes complete with a balanced Anton Breton AB-112V Brazilwood bow, a lightweight, nylon-covered semi-formed foam case, and high-quality D'Addario Prelude strings.
