The Beauty of Ebony Hidersine Piacenza violas benefit from a genuine ebony fingerboard pegs and chin rest. This hardwood has traditionally been used for hundreds of years due to its sincerely long-lasting properties. Genuine ebony doesnt mark pit or wear out under lengthy playing periods. This is essential in areas such as the pegs which are under a lot of tension from the strings. The shaft of each peg needs to retain its integrity and using Ebony is one of the best ways to ensure this. Ebony should remain structurally intact for a very long time and it will also feel smooth on the fingers and chin helping make the playing experience more all round enjoyable. Synthetic Core Strings The Hidersine Piacenza utilises nylon core strings in order to produce a warmer sound with more distinctive overtones. Provided With Everything Youll Need! Your new Piacenza will be supplied as an outfit meaning it comes complete with everything you need to get started. The outfit will include a case bow and some rosin. The oblong styrofoam shockproof case with detachable straps will provide maximum protection along with internal accessory compartments and an outer music pocket. The bulletwood half-mounted bow with ebony frog is of highest quality. There is a smooth metal plate between the frog and the bow stick allowing a smooth fit and protection for the wood as it slides back and forth as the bow is tightened and loosened. This means that not only will the bow assist in producing a superb tone it will also perform its role for a long time to come.
