[@RockStarOscarStern634]

They talked about the difference between a 5 String Violin and a 5 String Viola but they should've recorded footage of that, hopefully they will do that one day.

I wanted to hear it :c

[@ElectricStringPlayer]

NAMM show was insanely loud…. Really difficult, but we’ll do a test on the site soon!

I never got to hear them talking about the Differences between the 5 string Violin & 5 string Viola.

[@ElectricStringPlayer]

It’s a difference in the size of the instrument body one being Viola scale, the other being violin scale

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

@@ElectricStringPlayer They do have the same tuning though & the body sizes are different so there is a difference in sound between the 2 as well.

[@ElectricStringPlayer]

@@RockStarOscarStern634 yes exactly.

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

@@ElectricStringPlayer There should be a video demonstrating the differences in sound between the two instruments. There is one demonstrating that w/ Glasser instruments:ruclips.net/video/EbdgPYSoisc/видео.html

​@@ElectricStringPlayerMaybe Eastman Strings will upload a video explaining the differences & similarities between a 5 String Violin & a 5 String Viola.

looks like a realist violin

[@ElectricStringPlayer]

Nope. Different jack, very different pick up system, and as you will see in the review, lots of different options at a generally lower price point then offered by the realist which is also cool
