The Dolce viola outfit boasts all ebony fittings for a lasting fit. The expertly shaped f-holes provide for wonderful resonance and projection from this violin. The Dolce viola's beautiful oil varnish finish is the perfect compliment to this violin's wonderful woods and fittings. The varnish aids in the sound production of the instrument, as it makes the wood resonate more than with a lacquer finish. Palatino rounds out this great violaoutfit by offering an expertly made Brazilwood bow with ebony frog, as well as, a very durable and lightweight thermoplastic ABS case with two bow holders and an accessory compartment.
