Up for sale is a complete, used Franz Hoffmann Amadeus 1/4-Size Student Violin Outfit. Franz Hoffmann violins are widely recommended by school orchestra programs and private instructors because they are properly hand-carved from solid spruce and seasoned maple tonewoods, easily outperforming cheap, generic laminate/plywood instruments.

Marked with identification number KPA7006-160, this fractional 1/4-scale instrument provides a warm, clean tone and smooth fingerboard mechanics. It is the perfect budget-friendly alternative to expensive local rental programs, giving your young student an excellent foundation to learn correct posture, bowing, and pitch accuracy.

Item Condition & Maintenance Disclosures

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

• The Violin: In Good, player's condition. It shows average cosmetic wear from careful student use—including minor surface scuffs, small varnish scrapes, and edge dings on the body. There are absolutely no structural cracks, no open seams, and no wood splits to inhibit playability or acoustic tone.
• Maintenance Recommendation: The instrument will need to be restrung before regular practice sessions begin. A fresh set of core student strings will optimize its tuning stability and tonal resonance. Apart from needing strings, it is structurally rock-solid and entirely ready to be played.
• The Bow: Standard matching 1/4-size student bow with an intact, smooth-operating frog tension mechanism.
• The Hardshell Case: Included and fully functional, providing robust impact and climate protection during trips to school or private music lessons.

Key Features & Construction Benefits

• Solid Tonewood Foundation: Hand-carved solid spruce top paired with solid maple back and sides ensures a vibrant, clear tone rather than a muffled or tinny sound.
• Genuine Ebony Fittings: Outfitted with an authentic ebony fingerboard and pegs, preventing wood warping over time and ensuring smooth tuning adjustments.
• Integrated Fine-Tuner Tailpiece: Equipped with a high-durability composite tailpiece hosting 4 built-in fine-tuners, making it incredibly easy for parents, students, or teachers to make precise micro-tuning adjustments on the fly.

What’s Included

• Franz Hoffmann Amadeus 1/4 Acoustic Violin (KPA7006-160)

Safe & Secure Orchestral Shipping
