5-String 2025

“The most playable 5-string I’ve ever come across! Gorgeous balance and tone” – Rowan Piggott, D’addario Artist

This 5-string violin is my own design, built with comfort and balanced sound in mind. It plays smoothly, with a nice, even tone across all the strings — and the low C has a warm, resonant quality that really fills out the sound.

It’s got the same string length as a standard violin, so it feels familiar under the fingers, but I’ve widened the lower bout a bit and made the ribs deeper to give it more air volume — which helps the C string really sing. The scroll is hollow, too, which keeps the weight down and makes it easier on the shoulders during long sessions.

If you’re looking for a 5-string that feels natural to play and sounds full across the whole range, this one’s made for you.

It comes fitted with geared pegs for easy tuning, and a set of high quality professional grade strings.

This instrument comes with a certificate of authenticity and the option of a free service at six months, in order to carry out any tonal adjustments to your liking as the instrument matures.

This violin is made from European Maple, responsibly sourced from established suppliers in Bavaria.
