We happily present our new Hardanger fiddle! This beautiful instrument whose characteristic feature is the four sympathetic strings below the fretboard is carefully crafted. The full range of sound even in a crowded, noisy room is easily heard. The second set of strings are not directly bowed, but rather sympathetically resonate when the other strings are played, thus creating a reverberation effect.
Body, fingerboard and pegbox are provided with rich decorations such as paint, inlays and a carved dragon head. The woods used were aged 20 years before they were crafted into a fiddle. The top is made of spruce and the back and neck from gorgeous flamed maple. The fingerboard is ebony.
The dimensions are as follows:
Total length: 63 cm
Body length: 35 cm
Cabinet width: 16.5 / 10.5 / 20.5 cm
Scale Length: 30.5 cm
