Product Information

The Distintivo Hand-Crafted Viola is a meticulously crafted instrument designed for musicians seeking both tonal sophistication and responsive playability. Constructed from a hand-carved spruce top with a tight grain and a beautifully flamed maple back, neck, and ribs, this viola is as visually striking as it is sonically rich. The ebony fittings contribute to both its durability and refined aesthetic.

This instrument produces a deep, resonant sound with excellent clarity, making it ideal for solo and ensemble performances. Our professional setup ensures optimal playability, including a carefully fitted bridge, sound post adjustment, and high-quality strings chosen to enhance the viola’s tonal characteristics.

To further refine the playing experience, the Distintivo Viola includes the option of a custom sound adjustment by our expert luthier. Whether you prefer a warmer, more mellow tone or a brighter, more projecting sound, we can tailor the setup to suit your preferences.

Ideal for advancing players, this viola provides a rewarding playing experience with a broad tonal palette and refined craftsmanship.

Professional Set-Up

At Bridge Street Violins, we provide a professional setup that goes beyond the standard factory adjustments offered by most shops. Each viola is carefully inspected and adjusted by our expert luthier to ensure the best possible sound and playability. Depending on the instrument, this setup may include:

  • Peg adjustment

  • Fingerboard resurfacing (if necessary)

  • Top nut adjustment

  • Sound post and bridge fitting

  • String height adjustments

  • Tailored settings for enhanced playing comfort

This service ensures your viola is fully prepared for high-quality performance, offering a level of care that sets us apart from retailers who only provide a basic factory setup.

Viola Care Tips

To keep your viola in excellent condition and ensure it maintains its best sound, we recommend the following care tips:

  • Storage: Store your viola in a cool, dry place. Avoid extreme temperatures and humidity, as these can affect the wood.

  • Cleaning: Wipe down your viola regularly with a soft cloth to remove dust and rosin build-up. Avoid touching the varnish with your fingers.

  • String Care: Check your strings for wear and replace them when necessary. Avoid over-tightening, as this can stress the instrument.

  • Bow Maintenance: Always loosen the bow hair after playing and re-hair the bow when needed to maintain smooth performance.
