The finer details
Conrad Goetz take great care when choosing each small part of your instrument. They only permit products of the highest standard to make up these violins. You can trust that features like the original French Aubert Deluxe Steg bridge, the Goetz Guarneri Ebony chinrest, and the Goetz Ebony tuning pegs are of top quality. For an instrument with such a clear tone as the Golden State, the lightweight Guarneri chinrest was the natural choice to do justice to its full sound.
Tuning is made simple. A Master-E-String fine tuner with a gold screw lets you make minute adjustments to the highest and most delicate string with ease. Make even more of your beautiful instrument and playing with such precise tuning.
Golden beauty
Draw glances with your violin. The appearance of the Golden State violin can't help but please with its carefully hand-varnished finish. Bringing a flavour of the old-world into this modern violin, the borders of this instrument are crafted in the Antique style. There's a classic beauty in the fine and aligned flames on the instrument's back and sides. With its bright primer and finishing, pick a violin that shines.
Make the most of modern
With the benefit of years of the Conrad Goetz development process, you'd be a fool not to take advantage of the sound quality modern violins can provide. Achieving a sound you'd expect from a much more expensive violin, the Golden State violin provides a sound of the best orchestral quality. Dazzle across the whole spectrum of pitch with this soft and clear tone.
Dominate with Dominants
Dominant strings suit every player. Made for keen violinists, they are a favourite with live, studio, and casual violinists alike. This versatile nature takes them all over the globe. Wherever they are, their clear sound sings out despite humidity, making themselves a name as a durable choice. It's no surprise they're so strong with a flexible, multi-strand nylon core. With Dominants at your fingertips, you won't lose your nerve when playing even the highest note, as it can be reached with the E string's steel core.
