Thomas Kennedy Viola

Available in 16 5/8

Kennedy violas are created by the
experienced hand of Thomas Kennedy.
The amount of sound that this viola produces
can easily rival any viola that exists at any
price. It is constructed of the choicest
European woods and has one of the
sweetest and warmest sounds you'll
ever have the pleasure to hear.

The Thomas Kennedy violas are painstakingly hand-crafted in Oregon state using the traditional, time-perfected method of instrument making. Substantial time spent on the final carving, coupled with an experienced maker, produce an astoundingly beautiful sounding instrument.

The back, sides, neck, and scroll are made of top quality, well-seasoned, flamed European maple. Choice Engelmann spruce is used for the top. The elegantly decorated fittings are made of the highest grade ebony. A gorgeous, dark brown oil varnish, meticulously applied, allows the viola to resonate to its full potential. The bridge is a custom-fit French Aubert bridge. The viola is strung with professional quality Helicore strings on the C, G, and D; along with a Larson A string.

The sound of the viola is typically described by our professional viola testers as: strong, sweet, warm, and astonishingly projective. This viola's quality of sound and projection can effortlessly contend with other violas costing significantly more.

We purchase directly from the maker. This means our prices cannot be beat and you'll always get higher quality for the money.

All violas are hand inspected and set up by a professional luthier and meet or exceed all MENC specifications. When you receive your viola, it will be ready to play; not in pieces as many instruments are from other web sites.

All Violas have a 45 day money back guarantee of complete satisfaction.
