Yamaha V5SC Stradivarius 1/8 Violin with Case, Bow and Rosin

General

Offering more ambitious students a serious study instrument, the Yamaha V5SC Stradivarius Series violin comes complete with a bow, rosin and a lightweight case. A trusted name when it comes to musical instruments, Yamaha have packed this model with professional quality, even despite the attainable price. The design has been based directly on an original Stradivarius violin and every example has been hand-finished to provide learning violinists with the support and comfort of an excellent training tool.

The Yamaha V5SC Stradivarius Violin: An Eye for Detail

Like most violins, the Yamaha V5SC has a spruce soundboard supported by maple sides and a maple back; a construction that shapes a clear and defined tonal foundation as well as outstanding projection and dynamic timbre. What makes the difference in quality here is the exclusively developed oil finish, which has been thinly applied to promote a fast response and clear articulation, while giving this violin a sleek and elegant look.

High-Quality Parts

At its base, the Yamaha V5SC has the same build as the V5SA, but with one very important difference: the addition of a Wittner Ultra tailpiece with four fine tuners. This tailpiece has a significant impact on the string-to-body vibrational transfer as well as the tuning stability. And, as you'd expect of a violin within this price range, the tuning pegs and fingerboard have been made from ebony so you're assured of a smooth playing feel. To finish, the Yamaha V5CA comes pre-strung with a set of D’Addario Prelude violin strings.

• Please note: This 1/8-size violin is suitable for children between the ages of 2 and 6 with an arm length of least 42 centimetres.
