NS Design NXT4a Violin, Sunburst

The NS Design NXT5a Violin, Sunburst is a full-size 5-string electric violin built for players who want familiar violin feel with modern amplified flexibility. With an added low C string, it expands your range for contemporary repertoire, worship and pit work, looping, and crossover styles—without forcing you to change your left-hand approach or give up clean articulation.

At the core is NS Design's Polar Pickup System, designed to deliver a clear, balanced signal that stays consistent at higher volumes and works beautifully with effects. Whether you're bowing long, expressive lines or digging into rhythmic pizzicato, the NXT5a helps you stay in control, reduce feedback concerns, and dial in your sound quickly on the instrument.
