Is the price shown inclusive of VAT?

Yes. Every price on Northgate Music Co. includes UK VAT at 20%, and a full VAT invoice is emailed with your dispatch confirmation. There are no import duties or handling fees on UK orders.

Is the instrument shipped ready to play?

The bridge is fitted, the sound post checked and the strings fitted and played in before dispatch, so it arrives ready for a quick tune rather than a workshop visit.

What happens if I don't get on with it?

You have 30 days from delivery to return it for a full refund. We email you a free UK return label, and refunds are processed to your original payment method within 5 working days of the item arriving back with us.

What warranty cover is included?

Two years parts and labour against manufacturing defects, on top of your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Consumables such as strings, reeds, heads and batteries are covered for 90 days.

01 — Full details

Electrify your quartet!

Yamaha designed the silent electric viola as a highly capable performance and practice instrument. Dual under-bridge piezo pickups and a studio-quality preamp faithfully deliver acoustic tone that's fully tweakable with the onboard EQ system. A repositioned 1/4" output jack drapes the cable behind the player while the lower bout accommodates a standard shoulder rest. The electric viola's unfinished neck offers the feel of an acoustic instrument and the full 16" scale is easy to play.
