Heritage Violin
The Heritage Violin is a fantastic violin for advancing students seeking to improve their playing technique and develop a more mature sound. The Heritage is made with a well-aged, tightly-grained spruce top and flamed maple back. Its beautiful, antiqued spirit varnish lends itself well to a warm and even sound. The Heritage is set up with Pro-Arte strings, but it can easily be set up with Zyex strings to achieve a brighter, more powerful sound.
Available in 4/4 size

If you’re an advancing student, I recommend buying the Heritage. This one helped me improve my playing and technique mainly because it is so rewarding to play compared to my old violin. My teacher also said that I’m starting to progress faster. It may all be in my head but I think it’s a way better sounding instrument.
Now for the looks. This thing is beautiful. It’s got a slightly antiqued finish which adds to its warmth. Also compared to my old violin it does not require much tuning. This one can stay in tune for a long time. I asked Antonio Strad about it and they said that I should buy peg dope for my old violin and apply it to the pegs. It also has good strings, which I think is another thing that would help my other violin. I am going to order these Zyex stings and peg dope and see if I can change my old strings by myself.
This violin is just what I was needing. I think Antonio Strad pays close attention to its quality and value at the same time. Its high quality but not that expensive. Which would help me get better at playing without breaking the bank.
If you’re looking for advancement in your technique and sound, you should check this out because it’s made for exactly that. I wish they would have tuned it before shipping it because I had to tune it when it arrived. But overall, this is the right instrument for all those looking to advance in violin.
My teacher approves this instrument, an upgrade from a student yet not quite a professional violin. It’s a complete package with a nice case and a high-end bow. Then it also comes with a polishing cloth, tuner (I use my iPhone though), mute and Rosin. I really like having a new bow, it took a long time to put rosin on the bow because it had none on it at all, but once I got it started it works great. The bow even makes my old violin sound better.
The heritage offers all that I need for the rest of high school and college. It arrived ready to play and I didn’t stop practicing all weekend. My parents are also happy that I like it so much. It helps me improve and makes my sound more mature. I liked that it came with extras, it gives me more experience with different products. The case looks classy and plan on taking care of it so it looks good for the rest of high school.
I’ve always wanted to get really good with the violin but lately was becoming discouraged. Or bored with it really… So I needed somethiong to get excited about before I completly loose interest. So I got online and looked for a new fiddle and found the Heritage and love everything about it.
