Franz Sandner instruments have a long-standing association with German craftsmanship and are known for combining traditional construction methods with carefully selected tonewoods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 15-inch viola offers a comfortable, manageable size while retaining the warm, resonant tonal character expected from a well-crafted orchestral viola. A solid spruce top, flamed maple back, maple ribs and maple neck are finished in traditional hand-applied spirit varnish, and the traditional acoustic construction makes it well suited for private study, school orchestra, ensemble playing, and developing players ready for an instrument offering more refined response and tonal depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur highlighted item, serial number 131144, was manufactured approximately ten years ago and was used modestly by the owner. Across the top and bottom bow rims are some signs of usage, with a ding or two on the body and scroll box.
