Bridge Octave Electric Violin (Special Finish)
is a 4 string instrument available in Red Marble, Purple Marble, Blue Marble and Green Marble. Comes with case and carbon-fibre bow.
Construction
Headstock inspired by the Stradivarius 1710 Viola de Gamba; the neck with distinctive Bridge shield and through peg box is carved from a single maple block. The ebony fingerboard, nut and maple neck are professionally shaped and traditionally finished. The body is hollow; formed from a kevlar and carbon-fibre composite
Components
The high quality ebony pegs are professionally fitted to give positive grip with ease of movement. The Octave is supplied with Thomastik Infeld superflexible Octave Strings. Bridge electric violins use an encapsulated pickup system integrated into the bridge, utilising all the advantages of a traditional bridge and capturing the warmth of tone synonymous with their acoustic counterparts. Bridge does not supply their bridge pickup system to any other manufacturers or makers. The Octave features convenient volume and tone tilt controls situated for easy adjustment and is fitted with a lightweight tailpiece with fine tuners and an abony, Dresden-style, chinrest. The 1/4-inch jack socket is carefully positioned and angled to avoid drag and interference from the cable. The angle and proportions are compatible with all common wireless solutions. The 3v coin cell battery is also located on the underside of the instrument. This simple and readily-available battery can provide 1000 hours of playing time and only drains while the jack is plugged in.
