Review Videos

This is a 16" Viola hand made by Martin Sheridan in 2020

Martin Sheridan is a gifted luthier from Fort Madison, Iowa, making violins, violas, cellos, double basses, and guitars.

This viola has a great sound and the neck is wonderfully shaped to allow great access to the fingerboard and upper positions. The sound is tremendously big, robust and clear, with a very quick, grippy response.
