Amplify your tone
By using a Piezo pickup under the Aubert bridge, the Novita violin will amplify and capture every critical detail of your performance. Thanks to the design of this pickup, it can be placed under either the left or right side of the bridge, depending on what sort of tone you wish to achieve.
On the rear side of the instrument are the outputs - a 6.35mm large jack output for use with most instrument amps, and a 3.5mm mini-jack for use with headphones. There is also a preamp, where volume is controlled along with bass and treble EQ controls. The battery compartment for the preamp is also located in the back of the instrument (battery not included).
Traditional materials - contemporary design
Although the Novita is a modern-looking violin, it is built to the same exacting standards as an acoustic instrument of the same level. Similar to traditional violins, the top is made from spruce while the back and neck are made from maple. The instrument is then finished with a matte satin varnish which really enhances the aesthetics of the violin.
When you have a quality instrument, you need quality fittings. This is why Gewa have used the best fittings from Wittner. When you receive your Novita violin, you will get Wittner geared tuning pegs, a Wittner Zurich chin rest, a Wittner tailpiece, and a Wittner Isny shoulder rest. Everyone knows that Wittner products are made to a very high standard, and this is why Gewa have chosen them for the Novita violin.
