Up for sale is a complete, used Franz Hoffmann Amadeus 1/4-Size Student Violin Outfit. Franz Hoffmann instruments are highly recommended by school orchestra directors and private string teachers across the country because they are properly carved from real solid tonewoods (solid spruce top and solid maple back/sides), completely outperforming cheap, laminate/plywood internet violins.

Marked with identification number KPA7006-174, this fractional 1/4-scale instrument is the perfect, budget-friendly alternative to expensive local rental programs, giving your young beginner a teacher-approved platform to build proper muscle memory and pitch accuracy.

Condition & Maintenance Disclosures

We believe in full transparency so you can buy with total confidence:

• The Violin: In Good, average player's condition. It shows standard, expected cosmetic signs of use from a young student—including minor varnish scuffs, small edge dings, and surface scratches. There are absolutely no structural cracks, no unglued open seams, and no wood splits. * Restringing Note: The violin currently has a used set of strings installed. While they are intact, it will likely need a fresh restring to ensure optimum tonal warmth, brilliance, and tuning stability for the upcoming school year or lesson term.
• The Bow: Standard 1/4-size student bow with a smooth-operating tightening frog mechanism.
• The Hard Canvas Case: Included and fully functional. The zippers work smoothly, and the dense, foam-injected hard interior shell provides strong climate and impact protection, while the canvas exterior features a handy music pocket and carrying handles.

Key Features & Construction

• Solid Tonewood Foundation: Hand-carved solid spruce top and solid maple back/sides deliver a clear, resonant tone that rewards correct bowing technique.
• Composite Tailpiece with Integrated Fine-Tuners: Outfitted with a durable tailpiece hosting 4 built-in fine-tuners, making it incredibly simple for parents, students, or instructors to make precise micro-tuning adjustments quickly.
• Genuine Ebony Fingerboard: Features a real ebony fingerboard and tuning pegs, providing excellent durability and preventing wood warping over time.

What’s Included

• Franz Hoffmann Amadeus 1/4 Acoustic Violin (KPA7006-174)
• Student Violin Bow
• Protective Hard Canvas Storage Case with Shoulder Straps

Safe & Secure Orchestral Shipping

• Tension-Released Transit Nesting: Acoustic string instruments are highly sensitive to sudden drops and transit vibration. To ensure the soundpost stays locked and the bridge doesn't snap, the string tension will be slightly detuned before boxing.
• Padded Transit Protection: The violin will be nested securely inside its case with padded support stabilizing the neck and scroll. The entire case will then be heavily wrapped in multiple layers of industrial bubble wrap and packed tightly inside a thick, shock-absorbent outer corrugated shipping container.
• Shipping: Ships promptly with tracking. Buy with confidence!
