An instrument that keeps up
The Gewa Maestro 1 violin is the ideal instrument for advancing students. By using the tried and tested combination of a flamed European Maple body with a select solid European Spruce top, the Maestro 1 violin produces a beautiful tone full of power and colour. And thanks to the quality of these European tonewoods, the instrument's tone will continue to improve over time.
Similar to more expensive violins, the Maestro 1 includes full ebony fittings. Not only do these look great, but they're also hardwearing compared to cheaper woods. For the perfect finish, the Maestro 1 violin has been hand-varnished with a golden brown spirit with subtle gloss shading.
Thomastik Dominant strings
Serious strings for any occasion. Thomastik Dominant violin strings are the classic strings recommended for young musicians moving into more sophisticated playing. From there, musicians stick by Dominant strings for life just like professional, Hilary Hahn, who has a long history with the brand. Step up your playing with Thomastik Dominants.
Dominant strings combine tone and durability. Synthetic strings are strong, flexible, and comfortable, whilst retaining a natural sound. This Thomastik set can withstand anything, from air travel to vigorous double-stop fiddling. Known as a versatile string, they cater for this sort of folky sound just as well as they do classic or jazz.
Everything you need
Included with the Maestro 1 violin is a lightweight oblong hard case with plenty of storage. For ease of use, the case includes backpack straps to ensure that commuting is never an issue. The inside of the case can hold up to two bows, and even features a small accessory pocket - ideal for the included rosin.
Also included is a bow crafted from quality Bulletwood that is octagonally shaped for a comfortable grip when performing. Similar to more expensive bows, the bow features bright lapping, a comfortable thumb grip, and a three-piece looking end screw for a premium look. This bow also uses natural horsehair for the best possible sound and is suitable for any full-size violin.
