NS Design's New NXT4 4 String Electric Viola is designed to meet the demands of studio, stage, and other challenging performance environments. A comfortable 16" viola string scale, key features of this instrument include the self-powered Polar™ pickup system, patented precision tuning system, sleek, ergonomic design, and comparatively light weight. Available with either a flame maple Sunburst or Satin Black finish, the NXT features a maple body, ebony fingerboard and chinrest, the comfortable Custom Shoulder Rest, and an adjustable-height bridge. Most important, the NXT4 Viola offers artists exceptional amplified and recorded performance quality, and extraordinary freedom of expression.

The NXT's Polar™ pickup system is driven directly by the vibration of the strings, enabling it to produce a full spectrum of sound with power and clarity. A convenient switch beside the volume and tone controls allows selection between heightened arco and pizzicato pickup sensitivity, expanding the tonal palette even further, virtually free of wolf tones.

The NXT4 comes with a beautiful and functional case that will get you to and from gigs without any damage. The case has space for 2 Bows, shoulder rest, cables and additional gear. The instrument comes pre-strung with a set of NS Design Electric Viola Strings.
