A. Vistoli
Featured Instrument These instruments are from a limited run of our in-house violas which were made of tonewoods that have aged in our Utah workshop for several decades. The final thicknessing, varnishing and set-up were done personally by the shop owner, Charles W. Liu. It was varnished with a traditional Italian oil varnish recipe and naturally sun-dried. This viola is very smooth and easy to play. It has a full and resonant bottom register, a sweet upper register and is clear and balanced throughout. It is lightweight and powerful. These violas are a true joy to play and will only improve with time. It is a perfect “player’s instrument”. Available Now |
