The iconic Guarneri
Experience the feel of classic Italian luthiery. From the iconic generation of string instruments of Cremona, Guarneri violins are on the legendary level of Stradivari and other such historical names. You see this remarkable status as Guarneris have been played by big violinists like Niccolo Paganini. Hidersine's expert luthiers have captured this beautiful essence with their hand-crafting and stunning materials.
Guarneris are known for their flatter back arching and long F holes for rich bass notes. Professionals love Guarneri violins for their darker, full-bodied tone. This is ideal for more haunting melodies, especially as the design is well-suited to slow bow techniques. They can create these long notes without strain or choking of the sound. Impress your audiences with these faithful representations of the originals.
Beautiful tonewoods
Play with the warmth of the finest woods. Hidersine bring out the best in the classic violin combination of Maple and Spruce. Hand-crafted by master luthiers, these woods create a high quality character and tonal quality that you'll only find in the best violins. The hand-carved solid Spruce table provides a great base for your sound to resonate with strength. Likewise, a hand-carved solid Maple back and ribs adds to your tone as well as looking refined and classic with gorgeous flaming. These materials and their treatment makes the Espressione Guarneri very faithful to the anatomy of the original instruments.
Highest quality components
Every part of this violin is the highest standard. Ebony is a visually attractive and durable choice for the fittings and fingerboard of your Espressione instrument. The tight grain of Ebony requires no varnishing, making it the perfect hard playing surface for under your fingers. An Ebony chinrest and tailpiece adds to the dark, classic look of this instrument as well as providing a durable surface that remains in top condition. Tuning is simple on your highest, most delicate string with an E adjuster to make final touches. An Aubert bridge is the perfect addition, this French company creating very accurate and delicate pieces.
An outfit with everything you'll need
You're ready to go with this full outfit. A high quality bow made from sturdy Bulletwood means you can play as soon as your instrument arrives. This is especially true as with a Hiderside Rosin block, you can get your bow ready to make the best sounds. Pack everything away safely too with the Styrofoam oblong case. This Styrofoam serves as great protection for your instrument, giving you reassurance as you transport your violin.
