Latone VM 01-RW 4/4 Claret E-Violine

Latone VM 01-RW Electric Violin — Handcrafted 4/4 Outfit with Built-In Amplification

The Latone VM 01-RW electric violin combines traditional handcraft with modern on-board electronics, giving string players a full-size 4/4 instrument for both bedroom practice and amplified stage use. Every body is meticulously handmade from solid limewood, finished in a deep claret lacquer that protects the surface while highlighting the wood grain. Built for violinists who want a single instrument that covers silent study, rehearsal, and live performance, this model removes the need for separate accessories.

What Sets This Electric Violin Apart

Unlike many entry-level electric violins that ship as a bare instrument, this model arrives as a complete outfit with a hard case, bow, rosin, headphones, AUX cable, bridge, four strings, and a 9V battery already in the box. The solid limewood body paired with basswood for the fretboard, head, pegs, and chin rest is unusual at this price tier, where most competitors rely on laminated or composite materials.

Body Construction and Tonewoods — Bright, Resonant Acoustic Foundation

Solid limewood offers a light, balanced character that pairs well with a piezo bridge pickup, while basswood on the playing surfaces keeps the neck stable and the fingerboard smooth under the fingers.

• Solid limewood ensures a handmade construction for a bright, resonant tone.
• Fretboard, head, pegs & chin rest in basswood — keeps the neck stable and the fingerboard smooth under the fingers
• Finish: Claret lacquer — protects the wood while showcasing the grain pattern

On-Board Electronics — Silent Practice and Stage Amplification

Built-in power supply, volume control, headphone output, and an amplifier jack remove the need for external preamps, so the instrument is ready to use the moment it leaves the case.

• Built-In Power Supply: 9V battery (EU) — included in the package, no external power needed
• Volume Control on the instrument body — adjusts output level without reaching for an external preamp
• Headphone Output: 3.5 mm jack — silent practice without disturbing neighbours or housemates
• Amplifier Jack: Standard output — connects directly to a combo amp or PA system for live performance

Tuning Hardware and Complete Outfit — Ready to Play Out of the Box

Four adjustable tuning pegs keep pitch control precise during long practice sessions, while the included hard case and accessories remove the usual add-on purchases that push up the total cost of ownership.

• Tuning Pegs: 4 adjustable pegs — precise pitch control for all four strings
• Included Case — a lightweight hard case that protects the instrument during transport and storage
• Accessories in Box: Bow, rosin, headphones, AUX cable, bridge, 4 strings, 9V battery — everything needed to start playing immediately

Who Should Choose this Instrument

Beginners benefit from the complete outfit because everything arrives in one box — no need to research which strings, bow, or case will fit. Students moving from acoustic to electric playing will appreciate the headphone output for late-night practice in shared accommodation. This model is the right choice for players who want a ready-to-play electric violin without add-on purchases for cases, bows, and headphones. Professional musicians looking for a quiet practice tool for hotel rooms and tour buses will also find the built-in electronics and included headphones genuinely useful. With a 5-star average across verified Muziker customer reviews praising its value for money, this model has earned a strong reputation among first-time electric violin buyers.
