Description: Wichita Band Instrument Company Wichita, KansasDescriptionMint Open Box Krutz 300 Series ½ Size Step-Up Intermediate Violin Outfit, model 230These instruments have been tried in our store a couple of times, so we cannot sell them as new. Every KRUTZ instrument brings together the full ensemble of components: wood, varnish, strings and most importantly, expertise. It's the synergy of these components that gives every KRUTZ string instrument a voice.Creating the Voice of Strings has been achieved by Luthier Anton Krutz and his craftsmen after decades of hand crafting instruments in the Midwest for some of the finest string players in the world. KRUTZ is now the only shop in the world creating violins, violas, cellos and basses on a professional level with this richly imbued voice ... the Voice of Strings... existing within each instrument.Anton began as a young artist, developing his violin making skills. He then pursued the bounds of the instruments' acoustics in an avant-garde fashion, relentlessly enhancing every nuance of the process. The culmination of richness, power and versatile expression in his instruments' voice began to fill concert halls. As his reputation grew so did his desire to provide this voice to all levels of string players, which has led to the full line of KRUTZ instruments for students as well as professional players.KRUTZ recognizes that a player is a co-creator, choosing to use a string instrument to express the essence of the soul. KRUTZ instruments' voice empowers that self expression.Assembled, dressed, fitted, tonally adjusted, and polished in the Krutz Workshop.Fully hand-carved from aged, solid tonewoodsMaster Craftsmanship done to KRUTZ precise specificationsGenuine D’Addario Kaplan stringsSpruce top with maple back, ribs, neck, and scroll.Ebony pegs, chinrest and fingerboard, composite tailpiece with 4 fine tuners.Hand-applied shaded oil varnish, and genuine inlaid purfling.Outfit includes: Case, Krutz Carbon Fiber Bow, RosinHG Wichita Band Instrument Company is a small musical instrument emporium located in the center of the USA.
