Key Features
Handfinished by Yamaha's craftsmen. The Stradivarius designed Yamaha VA5S student viola is a high-quality instrument suitable to take you up to grade 6. Crafted with a combination of a solid spruce and maple body, a much more rich and resonant sound is able to be produced. Designed to the orchestral standard, this 15.5-inch viola features an ebony fingerboard and rosewood fittings offer both comfortable playing and durability.
For precise tuning, the VA5S incorporates a Wittner tailpiece with fine tuners. This is in order to make the whole process of getting into tune easier for students. Along with this, D'Addario Prelude strings have been added to create a unique blend of warm tone and durability. Also included with your viola is a hard moulded case, a bulletwood bow, and Piranito rosin.

The Yamaha Stradivarius influenced beginners viola is made from solid woods, featuring a spruce and maple construction, which gives a much more rich and resonant sound in comparison to many other student model instruments. Built on to this handcrafted body are fittings and parts of high quality. An ebony fingerboard gives the performer a hard wood on which to play which is also resistant to moisture. The pegs and chinrest have been made from rosewood, another hardwood thats life expectancy is far greater than most woods.
The Yamaha VA5S comes with high quality components that you would expect from a much higher value instrument. The tailpiece and fine tuners have been made by Wittner, who make top class components for string instruments. As well as this, D'addario strings have been added to the instrument to create a brilliant sound straight out of the box.
Yamaha have made this viola in to a package so that you have everything you need to get going as soon as the instrument arrives. Included is a Brazilwood bow along with rosin, allowing the viola to be played straight out of the box. For storing and transporting the viola to rehearsals and concerts, the instrument comes with a shaped hard case that can carry everything you need to your venues.
