Un violino elettrico a cinque corde progettato da Ned Steinberger con sistema di pickup polare ed elettronica attiva, che aggiunge la corda Do basso in gamma di viola per un repertorio espanso in ambienti amplificati.
The NS Design WAV5 is a masterclass in functional minimalism, carrying the unmistakable DNA of Ned Steinberger's design philosophy. Unlike many electric violins that try to mimic acoustic ergonomics, the WAV5 embraces its modern identity. The headless design is a revelation for long sets, shifting the weight back toward the shoulder and significantly reducing left-hand fatigue.
Sonically, the Polar pickup system is the heart of this instrument. It offers a remarkably clean, high-fidelity output that serves as a perfect blank canvas for signal processing. Whether you're running through high-gain distortion or lush ambient delays, the note definition remains crisp. The addition of the low C string is handled beautifully; the string tension feels balanced across the fingerboard, avoiding the 'floppy' C string issue common in budget 5-strings.
However, the proprietary shoulder rest system, while highly adjustable, has a learning curve and won't accommodate standard third-party rests. While it lacks the 'woody' resonance of a high-end boutique electric, its stability and feedback resistance make it a workhorse for the stage. For the advanced player transitioning into jazz, rock, or pit work, the WAV5 offers a professional-grade entry into the 5-string world with exceptional tuning stability and ergonomic balance.
