A 15 inch English Viola With A Huge Soul
This instrument of English origin
measures only 15 inches (381 mm) but because of its 43 mm high ribs gives the volume of
much larger viola. The overall condition is classed as "mint". We believe this
viola to be from turn of the century. Ideal for violist who is looking for a comfortable
size yet produce a large warm sound.
