Quality woods

Cremona produce the industry standard for quality violins at a reasonable pricepoint. This instrument excels past the average student violin and one of the reasons for this is the standard of the wood used in the body. Wood is the foundation for a violin's acoustics. The SV1260 'Maestro' has a firm base for its sound with a one-piece, flamed Maple back, which produces a rich and full tone. The expertly selected solid Spruce top is handcarved and graduated so the varying thickness of the wood produces the optimum, refined sound. Let your music come from this sophisticated starting point.

Looks as good as it sounds

You'll feel proud to open your case with this attractive violin. The Cremona 'Maestro' has a soft glow with a light, golden finish. This comes from the varnish, hand-applied and rubbed to the perfect shine. These finishing touches build on the natural beauty of the aged, flamed tonewoods. Your violin will glow.

Distinguished set-up

Cremona have taken pride in each piece of this instrument. Each part adds to the impressive sound. You won't need to replace the components of this violin any time soon with long-lasting and durable Boxwood fittings. Boxwood has a sweet-looking, light appearance and is often found on more premium instruments. The perfect bridge shape can enhance a violin's acoustics, so this aged Maple bridge adds even more to the advanced sound of this instrument. You can make sure your pitch is always spot on with a VP-14 finetuner for the E-string and Sacconi-style tailpiece hanger, which is believed to have a great impact on playability and responsiveness. The playability is also improved with a high-quality, polished Ebony fingerboard. Ebony is a hard surface to play on, thanks to being such a tight-grained wood, so is ideal for a fast playing-quality.

D'addario Prelude strings

A D'Addario Prelude violin string set is what every teacher would recommend for your student instrument. They instantly enhance the sound of your violin. With a solid steel core they will last a long time and are resistant to temperature and humidity changes. Prelude strings are known for being durable but also have excellent bow response and a warm tone. This string set lets you start strong.
