Stratton Gypsy 5-string electric violin, Antiqued Gypsy Finish, with Starfish Designs bridge

Description

The Gypsy by Jeff Stratton — creator of the radical death’s head Skull model violins — takes some of the weathered, carved, and custom elements from the Skull design and incorporates them into a slightly more traditional look. The look of the Gypsy model is still 100% Stratton, with many of the same custom touches that make Jeff’s violins stand out from an increasingly-crowded market.

This particular Stratton Gypsy’s finish sports a really beautiful antiqued-looking blend of ginger and honey colors, that’s really gorgeous up close. A dart-shaped plywood shell case is included.

‘Though it’s pictured with a Barbera bridge, this Stratton violin actually has a Starfish Designs bridge.

This 5-string Stratton Gypsy violin has a particularly beautiful finish — light ginger and dark honey shades give it almost an antiqued appearance. Its complex, multi-hued palette of golden and reddish colors showcase the amount of thought and effort that Jeff puts into each of his violins.

‘Though it’s pictured with a Barbera bridge, this Stratton violin actually has a Starfish Designs bridge. The Starfish pickup has a slightly darker, warmer sound, a bit crisper and clearer than the Barbera, ‘though not quite a fat-sounding. Its amplified sound is still completely suitable for amplifed “acoustic” styles of music, and almost works well with high gain effects or in high volume situations.

Electric Violin Shop includes a lightweight, dart-shaped case with all Stratton electric violins.
