Howard Core Dragon DR30 Model Violin

The Howard Core Dragon Violin is crafted for the advancing musician who seeks a perfect blend of sweetness, depth, and power. Built from well-flamed maple and finely grained spruce, each tonewood is carefully selected and aged to produce an instrument that combines tonal richness with projection and clarity. Its sound is broad and resonant, full of warmth and expressive color that responds beautifully to nuanced playing.

Finished in a mildly antiqued warm amber varnish with a subtle luster, the Dragon Violin exudes elegance and old-world charm. The attention to detail in its craftsmanship reflects Howard Core’s commitment to artistry, while its tonal range offers flexibility for orchestral, solo, or chamber performance.

Professionally adjusted with Pirastro Evah Pirazzi strings, the Dragon Violin responds quickly under the bow and projects effortlessly, maintaining both refinement and strength. Designed for intermediate to professional-level players, it represents a perfect balance of style, sound, and playability within the distinguished Dragon line.
