Jordan 8-string electric violin, Tazmanian Rose Myrtle with Starfish Designs Pickup
If even a seven-string violin seems limiting, this 8-string Jordan gives you the range of a violin, viola, and cello (plus one whole step!) all on one instrument. John Jordan's 7-string instruments are surprisingly easy to play, with a comfortable, ergonomic design and warm, clear tone thanks to the Starfish Designs bridge.
The deep reddish color of this instrument is the natural color of its wood -- the Tasmanian Rose Myrtle just has a clear coat to protect its finish. It isn't as heavily figured as some of the woods we've seen on Jordan's but this wood's natural look is striking on its own. With exceptional ergonomics, a wider neck, and ideal bridge curvature, it's almost criminally easy to play. This , an amazingly comfortable instrument that's sure to inspire you to plumb newer and deeper depths with your music.
Indulge your bass-er instincts, with a comfortable, ergonomically designed seven-string Jordan electric violin that lets you play the full range of a string quartet, without switching instruments!
The most surprising thing about a seven-string Jordan electric violin is how easy it is to play. The wider fingerboard keeps your left hand from feeling too cramped, and the perfect bridge curvature and string height makes bow work easier than it ought to be, even on the thickest, low B-flat string. We recommend a CodaBow Joule extended-range violin bow to get the most out of Jordan 7-string, but whatever bow you use, you'll find bowing this instrument easier than you'd expect.
A Starfish Designs multi-transducer bridge provides warm, clear tone. You will be shocked at this violin's deep, low bass, and the richness, warmth, and complexity of its tone.
A custom oblong violin case is included, modified to accommodate the Wolf Forte shoulder rest, which is permanently affixed to the instrument.
