Hidersine Espressione Violin Outfit - Guarneri model

Beautifully crafted in the style of the grand masters. Fitted with Thomastik Dominant strings as standard and made using the finest, aged tonewoods and high quality fittings and accessories, the Espressione violin outfit represents both superior quality and remarkable value.

"Inspired by celebrated designs and patterns from the most respected and skilled master luthiers throughout history, Hidersine Espressione instruments feature a unique varnish style and finish."

Regarded with as much esteem as Stradivari instruments, Guarneri violins are the product of the distinguished Guarneri luthiers from Cremona throughout the 17th and 18th Century.

Famously played by celebrated violin virtuoso Niccolo Paganini, Guarneri violins feature a lower, flatter back arching and longer f-holes that produce full-bodied bass notes and a notably darker sound.

The design also lends itself particularly well to slower bow techniques where bow speed can be kept at a slow pace without notes sounding like they are being choked.

Hidersine Espressione Guarneri violins offer stunning representations of their original counterparts.

This means that the instrument is worked on & improved by the luthier in our workshop before despatch. We adjust the bridge & nut for correct height, curvature & string spacing. Tailpiece and pegs are adjusted for smooth operation. In the case of outfits, the bow is rosined and checked for smooth adjustment.
