DESCRIPTION
The Yamaha AV5-34SKM 3/4 Size Violin Outfit is a well-crafted student instrument designed to provide developing musicians with exceptional reliability, warm tonal character, and comfortable playability. Built using traditional violin-making techniques, this outfit features a fully hand-carved solid spruce top paired with hand-carved solid maple back, ribs, and neck. Each piece of tonewood is naturally seasoned for more than five years before construction, allowing the instrument to develop a balanced, resonant voice with excellent response.
Finished in a hand-applied traditional oil varnish, the AV5-34SKM exhibits the classic appearance of a finely crafted violin while allowing the wood to vibrate freely for improved tonal performance. Genuine inlaid purfling reinforces the edges of the instrument while adding a touch of traditional craftsmanship. Premium ebony or rosewood fittings—including the fingerboard, pegs, chinrest, and tailpiece—provide durability, smooth tuning, and dependable long-term performance. The integrated four-fine-tuner tailpiece makes accurate tuning easy for beginning and advancing players alike.
Bearing Serial Number 0315X, this violin dates from approximately 2008 and has had a single owner. It shows cosmetic wear consistent with regular student use, including rim wear, a scratch along the side of the body, and light scratches on the lower portion of the top. The violin also has two professionally repaired cracks on the top near the upper bout. These repairs have been completed, and our technician has thoroughly inspected and adjusted the instrument for general playing condition, ensuring it is ready for continued use.
This complete outfit includes a Glasser fiberglass bow and a Yamaha molded ABS hardshell case, providing dependable protection for storage and transportation. Whether used for private lessons, school orchestra, youth ensembles, or community performances, the Yamaha AV5-34SKM remains an outstanding choice for students seeking a quality instrument backed by Yamaha's longstanding reputation for dependable craftsmanship and musical performance.
