Zubak Soloist Violins, based on a Stradivarius design, are steeped in the traditions and materials of Eastern Europe. Crafted by a third generation master luthier, every aspect of a Zubak instrument pays homage to old world traditions, while using modern technology for preciseness and consistency.

Each Zubak is constructed of the finest woods from around the world. Bosnian and Yugoslavian tone woods are naturally aged 8-20 years, and European willow corner blocks are crafted with hide glue construction. Every component adds to its beauty and strong tone. The playing surfaces are carved with the utmost precision. Fingerboards are made from Madagascar ebony, and it is finished beautifully using traditional materials such as lavender oil, gum, and natural shellacs. 

Players comment that the Zubak Soloist has a clear and resonant sound that is also sweet. Its responsiveness makes it an easy instrument to play, and it produces a ringing quality for each tone produced. The G and D strings in particular have a very rich and colorful timbre. As the violin is “played in”, the sound not only gets sweeter, but exhibits more individual character in all tone ranges as well. If ever there was a violin that made the player feel more empowered to play on stage, this is it.

Great attention is focused into adjusting all aspects of the instrument. After much testing and searching, we are confident that you will agree that a Zubak violin easily surpasses any other instrument in this price range.
