Stentor Graduate Violin Outfit - Various Sizes Available

Product Information

The Stentor Graduate Violin Outfit is a great choice for advancing players who are ready to move beyond entry-level instruments. Made from solid, carved tonewoods, the violin features a spruce front and maple back, ribs and neck, all finished in a warm brown satin varnish that highlights the natural grain.

Fitted with an ebony fingerboard and pegs, a composite tailpiece with integral adjusters, and synthetic gut strings, this model offers improved tuning stability and tonal warmth compared to lower-tier student instruments.

The outfit includes a quality wooden bow with an ebony frog and natural horsehair, along with a lightweight oblong case. The case is equipped with safety reflectors, two bow holders, accessory storage, a hygrometer, case blanket, and both shoulder and backpack straps—everything needed for lessons, practice, and performances.

Professional Set-Up Available

While this violin comes with a standard factory setup, we highly recommend our professional setup service for the best possible playing experience.

At Bridge Street Violins, our expert luthier carries out a full adjustment to ensure the instrument is comfortable to play and responsive across all registers. This service goes far beyond the basic setups offered by most retailers and may include:

• Peg adjustment for smooth tuning

• Fingerboard resurfacing (if required)

• Top nut shaping and string spacing

• Bridge fitting and soundpost adjustment

• Tailpiece and string height optimisation

• Tailored settings for improved comfort and control

Every instrument is treated with the same care we give our higher-end models, helping new players develop technique on a violin that’s properly set up from the start.

Violin Care Tips

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

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

• Cleaning: Clean your violin regularly with a soft cloth to remove dust and rosin build-up. Be careful not to touch the varnish with your fingers.

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

• Bow Maintenance: Loosen the bow hair after playing and wipe the stick with a dry, soft cloth to remove rosin dust, preventing build-up and protecting the finish.
