Overview
Hand-crafted by master luthiers in the Hidersine Reserve workshops, each of these instruments is truly unique. Although sharing a common specification, each Hidersine Reserve Viola is individually handmade and is therefore truly individual.
Using a selection of the finest, aged tonewoods and high quality fittings and accessories, they represent both superior quality and remarkable value.
Inspired by celebrated designs and patterns from the most respected and skilled master luthiers throughout history, Hidersine Reserve instruments feature a unique range of varnish styles and finishes.
Guadagnini
Guadagnini is widely regarded as the greatest violin maker of the second half of the 18th century, a title he earned through years of trial and experimentation, perseverance in a multitude of regional markets, and an original style that produced some of the best instruments in history.
The Hindersine Reserve Guadagnini Viola is modeled on the famous instrument designs of Italian luthier Giovanni Battista Guadagnini.
Notable for their neat, compact design based on Guadagnini's original viola designs, the Hidersine Reserve Guadagnini Viola produces a particularly focused sound with great projection.
Players can expect power in the higher notes that give the viola an expressive and resonant quality often not achievable with darker sounding standard violas.
