Piece for 4 Corner Blocks Violin/Viola European Spruce

Description of the Piece for 4 Corner Blocks Violin/Viola European Spruce

This piece of European spruce from which the four corner blocks for the violin are cut is a carefully selected piece for its acoustic and structural properties. Because it is square and close to the required final dimensions, it allows for significant savings in time and effort during the construction of the instrument. This is particularly useful for luthiers or amateurs who do not have specialized machines or tools, as it provides a practical and efficient solution for working the blocks without compromising the quality or precision of the work.

Violin or viola corner blocks reinforce the joints between the ribs, at the C-curves with the top and back, providing structural stability and aiding in sound transmission. European spruce is used for its lightness, strength and excellent acoustic properties, which contribute to a better sound quality and durability of the instrument.
