Description
The Glasser/Voltatron is a first-of-its-kind hybrid electric violin that combines Glasser’s durable carbon composite body with Volta’s innovative onboard speaker system. With a built-in rechargeable battery, twin speakers, and integrated reverb, it offers the freedom to perform anywhere — no cables or external gear required.
When it’s time for the stage, simply plug into an amp or PA for a clean pickup signal, while the onboard speakers act as your personal monitor. Switch between active and passive modes for added versatility, and enjoy the reliability of a carbon composite instrument that won’t be affected by changes in temperature or humidity. Whether you’re strolling, busking, performing, or practicing quietly at home, it adapts seamlessly — making it one of the most versatile violins ever built.
The AEX version uses a paint/dye coating system to provide a distinctive, slightly pearlescent color to the body of the instrument.
