Carbon violin "Premium Line" German Musical Instrument Award 2015
Carbon violin "Premium Line" German Musical Instrument Award 2015
"Premium Line" Carbon Violin
Beyond the Limits
With the "Design Line" carbon violin, we have already established a very high standard of quality. Yet, from time to time, we produce an instrument that significantly exceeds our expectations. One such special instrument won the German Musical Instrument Prize in 2015, outperforming 21 traditional master instruments. We have decided to give these special instruments their own quality label and further optimize them in many details.
Excellence in Sound and Craftsmanship
Outstanding sound quality, combined with perfect craftsmanship: That is the new Premium Line. Only 3-5% of all instruments meet these criteria, and they all undergo a complex audiometric test to classify tone quality, volume, and harmonics. Thereafter, they are tested by 2 professional violinists, both of whom must confirm the suitability for the "Premium Line" quality label.
Exclusivity and Waiting Time
Only 10-12 of these instruments are produced each year, so there may be waiting times when ordering.
