Up for sale is a complete, used Franz Hoffmann Amadeus 1/4-Size Student Violin Outfit. Widely regarded by string teachers and school orchestra directors as one of the best starter instruments on the market, the Hoffmann Amadeus completely outperforms cheap internet violins. Unlike generic instruments made from pressed plywood, the Amadeus is built with a solid spruce top and solid maple back and sides, ensuring a warm, resonant tone that keeps young beginners inspired.

Because this is a fractional 1/4-scale outfit, it is the perfect cost-saving choice for parents who want to avoid monthly rental fees while providing their child with a proper, teacher-approved instrument to learn correct fingerboard mechanics and posture.

Item Condition & Cosmetic Disclosures

• Instrument Condition: Used, in Good condition. The violin features expected, minor cosmetic scuffs and scrapes on the body from normal student handling. There are absolutely no structural cracks, no open seams, and no wood splits. * Playability Vetted: The cosmetic wear does not inhibit the instrument's playability or tone in any way. The tuning pegs fit well, the fingerboard is smooth, and the bridge is structurally secure.
• Included Bow: Standard 1/4-size student bow. The horsehair is fully intact, and the tightening frog mechanism operates smoothly.
• Included Case: The form-fitting hardshell storage case features a secure interior layout to shield the violin from bumps and weather shifts, and comes complete with a zippered exterior pocket and carrying straps.

Key Features & Student Benefits

• Solid Tonewood Construction: Crafted with a solid spruce top and maple back/sides to project a clear, rich tone rather than a muffled or tinny sound.
• Integrated Fine-Tuner Tailpiece: Outfitted with a high-durability composite tailpiece featuring 4 built-in fine-tuners, making it incredibly easy for students, parents, or teachers to make precise tuning adjustments on the fly.
• Genuine Ebony Fittings: Features a real ebony fingerboard and pegs, ensuring the wood won't warp over time and maintaining reliable tuning stability.

What’s Included

• Franz Hoffmann Amadeus 1/4-Size Acoustic Violin
• Form-Fitting Student Violin Bow
• Lightweight Protective Hard Case

Safe & Secure Instrument Shipping

• Tension-Released Transit Protection: Stringed acoustic instruments are highly sensitive to sudden impacts and shipping vibrations. To ensure the soundpost stays structurally locked and the bridge does not shift or snap during transit, the string tension will be slightly backed down before boxing.
• Heavy Void-Fill Protection: The violin will be nested securely inside its case with padded support around the scroll and pegbox. The entire case will then be heavily wrapped in multiple layers of thick bubble wrap and shipped inside a thick, shock-absorbent outer corrugated shipping container.
• Shipping: Ships promptly with tracking. Buy with confidence!
