Crafted from a Kevlar® and carbon-fiber composite, the Aquila four-string and Lyra five-string model Bridge electric violins are as durable as they are attractive. Bridge electric violins have a distinctively gorgeous dark tone, partly due to the design of Bridge's proprietary pickup system, and partly due to the acoustic resonance of a Bridge electric violin's hollow body. Partial upper bouts and a well-shaped neck give these instruments a very natural feel. Perhaps no other make on the market today comes in as wide a color variety as do Bridge electric violins.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"bridge-aquila-purple-green","title":"Bridge Aquila Iridescent Purple\/Green","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bridge Aquila violin features a hollow body made of a carbon fiber and Kevlar composite.

The lightning theme is echoed in the subtly stylized \"f-holes.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the above features hint at the electric capability of the Golden Tasman, the designers at Bridge also go out of their way to conceal the necessary trappings of electrified playing.
