Francois Jacquot #500VA Violin 4/4

The Jacquot 500VA violin would be perfect for any advancing intermediate player wanting a rich, warm-sounding violin with excellent projection.
 
It has a dark brown varnish with light shading that speaks to its warm tone, inlaid purfling, ebony pegs, nut and fingerboard and a tailpiece with in-built fine tune adjusters. It is usually fitted with Larsen Il Cannone strings, which balance out the warmth, adding more clarity and brilliance to the sound. If Il Cannone strings aren’t in stock, then a suitable alternative will be used.
 
Jacquot violins are generally characterised by their smooth, even tone and have great balance between the upper and lower registers. They are neither overly bright, nor warm and offer great projection and rich overtones. This makes them the ultimate all-rounder instrument, working exceptionally well in both solo and ensemble settings. When compared to the 300 and 400 models, the 500VA has more richness, depth and tonal complexity and this is due to the use of higher quality wood and workmanship.
 
Francois Jacquot violins are beautifully hand crafted in China using aged maple and spruce tone woods and professionally setup by the Luthiers in our workshop to ensure good playability and quality of sound.
