Only the finest details
Conrad Goetz choose only the best components. Your violin is configured with the utmost care, as Goetz products are highly respected amongst international experts. Each instrument is outfitted with C.A. Goetz jr. Premium fittings. The Ebony wood is glossy, dark, and holds a unique flourish in the pearly Parisian eye detail on the tailpiece and tuning pegs.
Play the Metropol with ease. The Goetz Guarneri chinrest is a clear choice for this modern violin, as with minimal surface contact it lets the clear tone develop and ring true. Perfect your sound even further with fine-tuning. A master-fine tuner on the highest and most delicate E string lets you make minute adjustments.
Both modern and classic beauty
The Metropol 110 has the best of a classic violin look. With a traditional technique used on the narrow Maple of the back, the flames are slight and matched. Fuse this with modern reddish tones and you have a truly blended design. The antique-style dark brown colour is accentuated with these red highlights, creating both a traditional and professional, chic appearance in one violin.
This beauty has depth. With the Goetz special technique of 15 extremely fine layers of varnish, the surface is rich with colour. Thoroughly crafted purfling provides another classic violin feature.
Dominate with Dominants
Dominant strings suit every player. Made for keen violinists, they are a favourite with live, studio, and casual violinists alike. This versatile nature takes them all over the globe. Wherever they are, their clear sound sings out despite humidity, making themselves a name as a durable choice. It's no surprise they're so strong with a flexible, multi-strand nylon core. With Dominants at your fingertips, you won't lose your nerve when playing even the highest note, as it can be reached with the E string's steel core.
