Acoustic/Electric Violins

If you want an instrument for both acoustic and amplified settings, consider an electro-acoustic violin. This has a hollow body you can hear just like your regular violin, and built-in electronics for amplification. Despite the hollow body, most of these will not feed back unless you get really loud.

Brands of acoustic/electric violins available from EVS:

EVS Spark Acoustic/Electric Violin

A well-crafted student violin is equipped with a transducer bridge so you can sound good whether you are using an amplifier or not. There is a volume control on the output jack, which is clamped to the body just like a chinrest. Read more about the EVS Spark Acoustic/Electric Violin

EVS Blaze Violins

If you want a fuller acoustic sound, consider one of the nicer violins that we convert here by adding an electric bridge and output jack. A volume knob on the top is available for an additional charge. The EVS Blaze violin sounds great and is available in 4- or 5-string models, and even a left-handed model.

Barcus-Berry Violins

Barcus-Berry has been electrifying violins for decades. The latest Barcus Berry acoustic electric violins boast an improved sound - and a great choice of colors. Supplied with the Barcus-Berry piezo bridge and 1/4 inch output jack, with a volume knob on the top.

Epoch Violin

An Australian acoustic/electric violin design with floating flat top and back. It has a full acoustic sound, is weather resistant, and is available in lots of bright colors. The sonic design hearkens back to the crwth, a medieval Welsh stringed instrument, that had one foot of the bridge act as the soundpost, extending through the top to rest on the back of the instrument. The bridge is thin and easily replaced for higher action or different string curvature. Amplified tone is excellent.

Meisel Electric Violin

A sleek hollow body gives the Meisel E-Fusion Electric Violin a decent acoustic sound, so you can clearly hear yourself without an amplifier (sounds better than some cheap regular violins!). Recently improved, they've added the nickname Spitfire - and one the most affordable five-string models on the market. The amplified tone is strong and warm, with their new pickup system. Perfect for the performer who wants an economical, modern shaped acoustic/electric violin.
