Viol Kit
The same range of Viols are offered in kit form for home assembly.
The price includes the license to build one instrument
for private use.
An important feature of our viol kits is the inclusion of a mould to
ensure success, even for the first time builder, so assembly of the body can
begin immediately.
The selected maple back is centre jointed, sanded to thickness and with
the fold guide pre-cut.
The fingerboard and tailpiece are supplied as tapered blanks to be shaped
before applying the matching rosewood veneer.
The ribs are pre-bent. Pegs, maple bridge, purfling, veneer, fretting gut
and a set of good quality strings are all included.
A fully dimensioned plan and instruction manual take the builder through
the construction of the instrument in a clear and concise manner, with 'step
by step' photographs further illustrating each stage.
All the kits Include free access to our customer 'Helpline' should you
need any advice on construction, setting-up or playing.
The 6 string Treble Viol kit has the centre jointed front made
from top quality Swiss pine with the arching profiled, leaving only the
final thicknessing and sanding for the builder.
The neck has a solid scroll and a shaped peg box with taper reamed holes to
which solid rosewood pegs are already fitted.
The 6 string Tenor Viol kit has centre jointed front made from top
quality Swiss pine with the arching profiled, leaving only the final

The 6 string Bass Viol kit has the centre jointed front made from
top quality Swiss pine with the arching profiled, leaving only the final

In the 7 string Bass Viol kit, the top quality Swiss pine front is
supplied centre jointed only, leaving the shaping and profiling to the

The neck is cut to outline shape leaving the finishing and fitting of the
rosewood pegs to the builder.
This kit requires some previous experience of instrument making and
a reasonably well equipped workshop. |
