Eastman Violin Outfit Build Overview
The Samuel Eastman VL105 4/4 Stradivari Violin Outfit is a beautifully crafted, performance-ready instrument designed for developing players seeking reliable tone, playability, and craftsmanship. Built with aged solid spruce and maple tonewoods, the VL105 delivers a clear, balanced voice with excellent projection and responsiveness.
Constructed using a traditional Stradivari pattern, this violin offers a well-rounded tonal character with strong projection—ideal for both solo practice and ensemble settings. Finished in a hand-applied spirit varnish, it features a classic look that enhances both resonance and visual appeal.
Outfitted with genuine ebony fittings, including fingerboard, pegs, and chinrest, the VL105 provides dependable tuning stability and smooth playability. A composite tailpiece with integrated fine tuners allows for quick, precise adjustments, making this an excellent choice for students and advancing players alike.
As a complete outfit, the VL105 includes a Cadenza bow and hardshell case, offering everything needed to start playing right away.
