Improve Your Tone The Vivente features the traditional set up of a specially slected straight grained spruce top or sound-table combined with a solid back and ribs. Having a good quality sound-table is essential to produce a good tone as this is where the instruments primary voice is formed. Additionally as the wood ages it slowly relaxes to its natural state improving the tone even further. The solid seasoned maple body is enhanced by a graphic flame finish which provides a similar look to a professional Italian instrument. Synthetic Core Strings Synthetic core strings are insensitive to temperature and humidity changes making the strings ideal for gigging and travelling musicians who perform at a variety of venues.

CNC Machined The Hidersine Vivente bass is CNC machined rather than handcrafted.

Gained from the years of work are the ESTA-chosen (European String Teachers Association) entry-level Vivente student outfit the advanced Piacenza student outfit and the degree students choice the Veracini plus many more fine instruments. These instruments led Hidersine to develop the Hidersine Reserve range of one-off instruments for the connoisseur.
