Yamaha 5-String Electric Violin – Natural Wood Finish

Demo Unit. Full Yamaha Warranty.

Inspired by craft and design elements of Yamaha acoustic guitars, Yamaha set out to design a new kind of electric violin made primarily from wooden materials. This instrument takes a design cue from both violin and acoustic guitar shapes, creating a beautiful yet amazingly lightweight instrument made with six different woods. These wood materials are carefully crafted with an airy infinity loop-like design, representing the dimensions of acoustic space, and is as stunning visually as it is fun to play. Using a unique Yamaha bridge pickup that carries over from professional Yamaha Silent Violins, this instrument delivers a smooth, organic and warm tone. The design incorporates a simple input to match the clean and natural aesthetic of this innovative electric violin.

• This is an all-access electric violin: beautiful, light, easy and fun to play at an affordable price point
• Designers wanted to make a visually appealing instrument with simple, clean sound that strongly appeals to violin players
• Made from 6 different woods that add to the overall organic, natural & resonant sound of the amplified instrument
• Just plug it into an amplifier and play. No batteries, no headphones, no preamps necessary
