THE
VIPER VIOLIN
The Viper is the most innovative electric being built
today. It is so unique that the design is patented. The shoulder and chin rest
are no longer needed (the instrument is completely self-supporting). The violinist
uses an adjustable chest support system (with strap that goes around back of player)
which allows the player to perform for a longer period of time without experiencing
the neck and back fatigue that a traditional violin creates. The Viper is offered
in 4, 5, 6 and 7-string designs, with or without frets, with a Schatten pickup
included at no extra charge - although we highly encourage upgrading to a Barbera pickup. The 7-string model is only available w/Barbera pickup. All Vipers are made of poplar wood with natural satin finish - optional
finishes, hardware and pickups are available at additional charge.
THE COBRA CELLO
The
innovative design of the Cobra Cello utilizes our patented self-supporting chest-support
sytem which offers unparalleled freedom of movement to the modern cellist along
with outstanding richness of tone. All Cobras include the Barbera transducer pickup system.
"TRADITIONAL" ELECTRIC VIOLINS (not that ANYTHING we build can be called "traditional!")
The Stingray:
A fretless violin with
custom-made pegbox and chinrest.
(shoulder pad not included)
The Sabre:
Same
as the Stingray but with different body design.
Both
electric violins offer the best value for today's modern violinist. Whether you
are a beginning string student or a professional musician, these violins make
the transition to an electric solid body seamless. They are not only the perfect
practice instrument, but they also deliver outstanding tone and the necessary "punch" for live performances. All violins are made of poplar wood with a natural
satin finish and come with a Schatten pickup system. Optional finishes available. Please inquire about the availability of 6-string versions of the Sabres and Stingrays.

are interested in (model, amount of strings, pickup choice, finish, accessories).
Payment
Terms:
If purchasing directly from one of our authorized dealers, they each have their own policies regarding payment terms.
If purchasing directly from us: Since these violins are custom made, 50%
deposit is required when ordering (we accept credit cards, personal checks, and
money orders). Balance due upon completion before shipping. Return
Policy: Once you receive your instrument, there is a 15-day trial period
during which, if not satisfied, you may return it in perfect condition to qualify
for a refund (minus a 15% restocking fee). This return policy applies only to
instruments that have not been customized in any way (i.e., custom paint or laminate,
etc.). We do not issue refunds for instruments kept beyond the 15-day trial period. Limited Warranty:
Wood Violins are warranted for one year to the original owner against defects in materials and workmanship. Exceptions to this warranty are parts not manufactured by Wood Violins and parts that are subject to normal wear. Damages due to negligence, misuse, exposure to extremes of humidity and temperature are not covered. Any defects will be corrected at no cost to customer.
Note:
All prices quoted in US$. Above prices do not include
tax, shipping, crating, packing, insurance, or bank fees for international orders.
Since these are hand-built, one-of-a-kind instruments, please allow approximately 16-20
weeks for delivery (slightly longer for custom finishes).
