Power and expression are two characteristics that contemporary electric violinists search for in an electric violin. Our designers and engineers have provided the EV-205 and EV-204 Electric Violins with the ability to deliver both. Using an amazingly powerful pickup system, newly designed by our engineers, in combination with a one-piece, solid maple body and a unique solid maple soundboard allows these 5 and 4 string Electric Violins to deliver massive tone that’s both aggressive and expressive. For the artist it opens up a whole new world of sonic possibilities and expressive freedom with fat tone that is sensitive to the many nuances created by the violinist’s different bowing and playing techniques.
For Jazz, Rock, New Age, and a variety of other styles, in the studio or on the stage, Yamaha’s Electric Violins are the perfect vehicles for creative musicians.
