BERDANI makes unique tailpieces that are precisely crafted by master craftsmen. All products are produced entirely in Germany in our atelier.

• the weighting of our violin tailpieces supports the sound of the instrument and favors the overtones of your violin
• the strings run parallel from the bridge to the tailpiece and do not taper. This results in a harmonically balanced sound
• the slot width is 1,5mm. the strings fit loosely into the slot and can vibrate freely
• the fret of the tailpiece is firmly glued to the tailpiece and rounded on one side. This prevents the string from rubbing off
• the holes and slots are milled parallel to the rounding of the tailpiece, so the strings run without tension to the bridge
• 2 hanging strings are included in the delivery. One hanging string made of plastic and one braided textile string which improves the sound.
