Wood Violins Viper 5-string Fretted Electric Violin, Gloss Black
The famous Wood Violins Viper is back and better than ever. The PRO series is for serious players who want an iconic look to go with incredible tone and the playing comfort and freedom that only a Viper can provide!
Visually, its raucous flying V shape speaks for itself, but this is no case of form over function. The Viper's wings envelope you, while its adjustable shoulder strap and support arm system hold the instrument, leaving you hands free to dance, jump about, play keys, or rock the mic.
Wood Violins standard frets are what we call “locator” frets, because they provide a visual and tactile means of locating a pitch on the fingerboard but, unlike guitar-style frets, they are somewhat flattened and do not “break” the string. Therefore, you place finger on top of the fret to play in tune. This clever design also means that vibrato and glissando are not inhibited by the raised fret. Mark Wood’s patented dot pattern aids in finding 5th, Octave, 12th and other important positions on the fretboard.
The Viper PRO is equipped with a ForteVio Viper pickup, specially designed by ForteVio's Valentin Hristov to fit and sound great with the Viper! The ForteVio pickup combines rich, woody tone with balance and nuance across the full range, all backed by tremendous power that punches right through with any effects. The ForteVio is quickly becoming the new standard for electric violin pickups, known not only for its incredible sound but also its reliability.
