3/4 size (15.5inch) French Viola for sale. Perfect for a teenager/small adult

[luluiw]

The viola is a 3/4 size Joseph Bernard (French made) viola. It was valued by Guivier of London in 2008 at ?1000. The viola comes with a case, two bows and a neck rest, all of which are in excellent condition.

Looking for ?400-?500 for the viola with all parts included. Serious bidders are welcome to come and try instrument- we are on Copleston Road. The viola must be collected by 13th July before we move.

The viola itself has a rich, deep sound and a warm colour. When I get a minute, I used the viola for about 5 years in the late 1990s, early 2000s. I no longer play, but used it in a number of chamber quartets and orchestras as a teenager. Because of the size of the viola, I believe it would suit either a teenager, or a fairly small adult.
