Mezzo-forte Carbon fiber viola “Design Line”

Our small viola is a fine example that size is not decisive….

Seriously: It is the result of a long term development process, the result of endless testing, experimenting and also the result of learning from failure.

Mezzo-forte Carbon fiber viola “Design Line”

We have put all our efforts into our carbon fiber instruments, and still we do every day.

This viola provides a new feeling, a freedom of playing, and a direct contact to your instrument which you have never experienced before.

Response, balance, volume, brightness on a string and rich warmth on the lower strings – these are only a few aspects of what you feel, hear, and bring over to the audience.

We invite you to become a believer.

Carbon fiber instruments are for sure an important part of future developments of musical instruments – we have made the step now, waiting for you to join us.

Don’t care – just play!

Maintenance is not really an issue: Just use window cleaner for the daily cleaning, and common car polish for scratches. No need to consult your luthier for every small damage of the surface!
