The Cremona SVA-130-155 is a 3/4-size (15.5") viola set from the Premier Novice Series, designed specifically for students seeking a solid, great-sounding, and comfortable instrument to help them develop their musical skills. This viola is handcrafted entirely from solid spruce for the top and solid maple for the back and sides. The transparent warm brown lacquer highlights the traditional craftsmanship and provides a classic look.
With polished ebony fittings, an ebony fingerboard, and an oil-finished neck, this viola offers not only durability but also a pleasant playing experience. Precise adjustments for string height, spacing, and neck bow make it easy to learn correct fingering and play in tune. The complete set includes a well-balanced Anton Breton AB-112V Brazilwood bow, D'Addario Prelude strings, and a sturdy, lightweight nylon-lined foam case. The composite tailpiece with four fine tuners makes tuning accurate and effortless.
