The J4 Violins

So, here at last is my new Jazz/Swing violin. The J4.

This violin has the same freedom of expression in its shape as does Jazz/Swing music.The sleek uncluttered lines immediately give the player a sense of liberty, and the cutaway eases playing right up the fingerboard. Sound has not been compromised either, and these violins are even and well balanced, with just the right amount of growl.

All in all, a modern violin for today's players. Still a snip at around £3,000.

More information about my new innovative J4 violins

My idea was to make a violin specifically for ease and speed of playing. The cut away allows for easy reach up into the higher registers, and the uncluttered treble [bowing] side gives a feeling of confidence and freedom to the bowing arm.
Acoustically they work well too. The E strings are powerful and direct and the others are well balanced and sonorous, with just the right amount of 'cut' to them.
I call them Jazz/Swing, but they are equally at home playing any type of music..
I'm really pleased with them and think they will make an exciting addition to my unconventional range of fiddles.
Spoil yourself, come and try one soon !
