NS Design CR 5-String Electric Violin With Frets
The NS Design CR electric violins are probably the most advanced electric violins in the market today! The Polar ™ pickup system is designed to meet the highest demands of violinists across different genres.
What separates this electric violin from all the other violins is the dual mode preamp. Which allows you to select between a modern "electric" violin sound, or traditional "acoustic" sound. By separating these two options, you get a more enhanced, rich tonal sound for each sound. This way, you get the absolute best of both worlds, rather than the "good enough" of both worlds, which is the result of most electric violins that do not have this dual mode option.
The instrument itself is designed with exceptional quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Violinists that have been classically trained will have no problem getting used to playing these CR electric violins. There's even a black reference bout on the treble side of the instrument for violinists used to touching the body of their instrument for finger position reference.
The NS Design CR model is also the most advanced electric violin model compared to the NXTa and WAV models. The CR model features 3 knobs for volume, treble EQ, and bass EQ. The Polar ™ pickup also features 3 toggle options for more "electric" or "acoustic" sounds.

Polar ™ Pickup System
The most advanced violin pickup there is. The Polar ™ pickup system is what separates the ND Design violins from all the other electric violins out there. It is designed to capture every nuance and bowed response to create brilliant tones and sonics to your amplifier or speaker system.
The CR model Polar ™ pickup features 3 toggle options:
- Vertical string vibration pickup for sustained plucks
- Lateral string vibration for full frequency arco
- Lateral string vibration for "acoustic" timbre arco
The Dual Mode Preamp
The dual mode preamp of the CR electric violin allows you to switch between 2 tonal qualities. A modern and rich "electric" violin sound, or traditional "acoustic" sound. Both options are available through a 3-way toggle switch on the instrument (next to the 3 knobs).
Sustained Pizzicato
This is the vertical string vibration pickup mode. The Polar ™ pickup captures the plucked sound and translates it into the tonal qualities similar to that of a guitar. So that you get a fuller and more sustained pluck sound.
Full Frequency Arco
Lateral string vibration pickup mode. This delivers full frequency response of modern low impedance electronics for a rich "electric violin" sound. Perfect for violinists that want to explore new sonic territories.
Acoustic Timbre Arco
Also a lateral string vibration pickup mode. But it translates the signal into the frequency response of a classical "acoustic" violin. Perfect for violinists that want to easily switch over from "electric" mode to the more elegant and fine tones of a traditional violin.
Volume & EQ Knobs
The CR electric violin features 3 knobs along the side of the instrument. Volume control, treble EQ, and bass EQ. Perfect for violinists that want to adjust their treble and bass tones on the spot to blend better with other instruments.
Precision Tuning
The tuning system is light years ahead of traditional tuning pegs. It grips the strings more tightly so they do not go out of tune as frequent as traditional acoustic violins. Plus the micro-tuning knobs make tuning very smooth and precise.
Adjustable Bridge
The adjustable bridge allows violinists to explore playing styles of different genres. Adjust it higher for a more traditional violin feel. Or adjust it lower for fast performance like an electric guitar.
Custom Shoulder Rest
The shoulder rest allows you to shape and adjust the padded base to your shoulder and chest for a more secure and comfortable fit.
