GVC KCC R31AM VIOLA

GVC KCC R31AM Viola 

The GVC KCC R31AM Viola builds upon the proven excellence of earlier KCC models, offering a higher standard of craftsmanship, tone, and playability. Handcrafted from six to seven-year loft-seasoned tonewoods, this viola showcases the meticulous artistry of European instrument making. The fine, even-grained spruce top is paired with a nicely flamed maple back, sides, and neck, resulting in a visually stunning and tonally expressive instrument that blends beauty with reliability.

Sonically, the R31AM delivers excellent projection, balance, and warmth. The carefully seasoned tonewoods provide rich resonance and clarity, while the upgraded Thomastik Dominant or Vision strings bring out its full tonal character—smooth, vibrant, and responsive. This viola continues to improve as it’s played, rewarding consistent musicianship with deepening tone maturity over time.

Perfect for intermediate students, advancing players, and ensemble performers, the R31AM is designed for musicians who value dependable playability without compromising on tonal richness or craftsmanship. Its elegant appearance and professional-grade setup make it a standout option for those seeking a long-term instrument at an exceptional price.
