Hourglass - Natural Glossy

Comfortable Grip and Enhanced Resonance: Experience a violin that feels instantly natural in your hands. The ergonomic hourglass fiddle body provides a slimmer, more intuitive waist contour, making shifting positions smoother and reducing arm fatigue during long practice sessions. Its reshaped internal cavity also enhances resonance, giving your sound greater warmth and projection—perfect for students who want comfort and tone without compromise.

Hand-Carved Spruce and Maple Construction: Every Aklot violin is individually handcrafted by experienced luthiers using carefully selected, naturally seasoned wood. The top is made from acoustic-grade spruce, while the back and sides use premium Canadian maple—a classic pairing celebrated for its stability and tonal richness. Spruce delivers a clear, responsive sound, and the maple contributes warmth, depth, and a touch of brilliance. Together, they create a full, resonant voice that helps beginners develop a more refined and confident tone.

Smooth, Precise, and Comfortable: Durable ebony pegs provide stable tuning for every adjustment. Their high density and natural stability prevent slipping or warping, ensuring your violin stays in tune. The ultra-smooth ebony fingerboard delivers a buttery-glide playing experience, reducing finger fatigue and giving both beginners and advancing players effortless control and confidence.

Effortless and Reliable Tuning: This violin features a unique single fine-tuner specially designed for the E string—the thinnest and highest-tension string—allowing precise adjustments without difficulty. Unlike multiple fine-tuner systems, which can be confusing and more prone to slipping or uneven string tension, this single-tuner setup ensures stable, effortless tuning. Quick and reliable adjustments let you focus on playing rather than constant retuning.

Ergonomic Maple Neck: The slim maple neck is crafted with proportional dimensions for a natural and comfortable grip, promoting proper technique and confidence as skills develop. Its dense, durable wood ensures long-lasting stability, resisting warping or bending over time. Beyond its structural strength, the maple subtly enhances the violin’s brightness and projection, while its fine grain and warm color add elegance to the instrument’s overall appearance.

Responsive Rosewood Bow: Crafted from durable rosewood and strung with premium horsehair, maintaining excellent balance from frog to tip. Its carefully designed construction ensures stable, controlled bowing throughout, making it ideal for sustained strokes and precise violin performance.

All the Essentials in One Box: This complete violin set includes a premium canvas case, rosewood violin bow, hand-fitted maple bridge, solid wood shoulder rest, electronic tuner with extra strings, fretboard stickers, cleaning cloth, user manual, and a beginner lesson book—everything you need to start playing right away.
