The Bunnel Viola is perfect for the beginning violist. This viola has a warm tone and is available in 13″, 14″, 15″, 15.5″, 16″, and 16.5″ sizes. Bunnel Violas are made with select maple and spruce tonewoods. Detailed carving contributes to a sound that is projective with superior tone quality.

The quality of the instrument comes from our attention to detail. Many beginner violas are coated with a shiny, thick lacquer finish that dampens sound and affects the tone quality of the instrument. The Ricard Bunnel Viola, like our other instruments, are finished with a traditional, hand-rubbed oil and spirit varnish that is smoothly polished. The oil finish complements the maple and spruce body of the instrument, allowing the sound to resonate clearly and with greater projection.
