Mezzo-Forte Carbon Fiber Orchestra Line Viola

Made in Germany, this carbon fiber viola by Mezzo-Forte is designed and produced using state-of-the-art-technology. This futuristic vision produces a quality of sound easily comparable to that of a wooden instrument, while offering a far greater presence, projection and ease of playing.

This instrument starts with the standard Design Line level instrument, but instead of the black, carbon fiber weave look, the instrument is finished in a beautiful natural wood-look finish. This wooden airbrush finish is very tastefully done, and finds a perfect balance between the traditional, wood appearance, with more modern design and materials.

Viola Specifications:

Body: Two piece, layered carbon fiber. Strengthened at upper and lower blocks. 2 component lacquer.
Fingerboard: Spruce fiber composite (injection moulded). Dark and hard like ebony. Smooth to the touch and perfectly shaped - and helping preserve natural resources. The decisive feature being the fingerboard will not warp - thus making it ideal for use with carbon fiber.
Pegs: Wittner finetune geared pegs
Bass Bar: Carbon and bonded to the instrument. It gives warmth to the lower strings and helps stabilize the top.
Bridge: Hand-carved professional level bridge from Aubert
Strings: Evah Pirrazi Green or Maker's choice. We set up this viola to reach its fullest potential.

About Mezzo-Forte Viola:

The Mezzo-Forte design concept is to develop instruments for the 21st Century. Any measurements used in traditional viola making have been transferred in order to help the player feel immediately familiar with the instrument. Therefore switching between wood and Carbon Fiber should not be a problem.

From the beginning to the end, all instruments are made in Mezzo-Forte's workshop in Germany, and they set a high value on quality and making fantastic instruments.

All Mezzo-Forte instruments come with a certificate of authenticity and a unique serial number which makes them easy to identify.
