Tailpiece English Model

Tailpiece Viola english model

BERDANI develops tailpieces that are perfectly matched to your instrument in precise manual work. All Berdani products are completely built in Germany. We offer different models and different lengths to ensure that your instrument produces the best possible sound.

Our idea for an optimal sound:

• the weighting of the tailpiece is selected in such a way that the vibrations of the instrument supports and not hindered

• the tailpiece is so hollowed out that it does not favour a wolf tone

• the angles of the strings from the bridge to the tailpiece do not taper, but run straight, downwards and parallel to each other. The result is a harmonious and balanced sound

• the slot width is so wide that the thickest string fits into the slot without cutting. The String vibrates more freely

• the tailpiece comes with a plastic and a braided string. You can do the following decide yourself  which sound you like better

• the fret of the tailpiece is rounded on one side to minimize the rubbing of the tailpiece

• the fine tuners are made of titanium and can be installed and removed by hand

• A smooth-running thread allows the screw in the titanium fine tuner to be loosely turned and can be tuned optimally
