Description
Originally commissioned by Atar Arad, these sets feature a 6″/150mm base for the ultimate in support, especially on larger violas! These sets come with a base made from our collection of alternate species of veneer. You can see what they look like here.
To help you pick which option to go with, here are some notes from Tigran as he tried each of them on his violin. If you have any questions, though, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
– Birch: Another power house, yet resonant, elegant, and fair to all strings. Love this one!
– Etimoe: Chocolaty tone, resonant but very warm (a favorite, for sure!)
– Ipe: Dark and noble yet gives the low register support and strength.
– Madrone: Beautiful just like the wood itself! Noble, gorgeous sound throughout. Woody, chocolaty, golden, and red. One of my favorites for sure! Highlighted the high frequencies
There are sets for every need.
- Have your own pad? The “Solo” is the one for you (it does not come with any pads).
- If you know exactly what you want, go with the single pad of your choice!
- The two-pad sets offer a little more flexibility.
- Finally, the Full Set comes with all four of the standard pads, for the most flexibility in finding the right fit. They are great for teachers, too!
The overall heights with each pad are approximately:
Thin: 0.87″ (about 7/8″), 22.1mm
Medium: 0.98″ (about 1″), 24.9mm
Thick: 1.09″ (almost 1-1/8″), 27.7mm
Extra Thick: 1.22″ (almost 1-1/4″), 31mm
