Familiarity meets versatility.
The semi hollow body Katana, with its unique and contemporary design, make for a seamless transition into the electric violin world.
This sleek and beautiful instrument deliver outstanding tone and the necessary punch for live performances.
While its design is still outside the box, it offers a more traditional feel for players who prefer an ‘under the chin’ experience.
Equally comfortable in the fiddle and rock genres, this beauty will give you the best of all worlds.
As an enhancement to its design, there is a slight symmetrical curve to each side of the body.
Katanas come with a custom-made pegbox and chin rest (shoulder pad not included).
Average street prices range from $2,000 – $3,000, depending on options you choose (number of strings, frets or fretless, pickup, custom finish).
