Personalised multi-point setup included

Before dispatch, your instrument will be treated to a full setup. That's not a quick tweak, but a full multi-point setup by an experienced guitar technician who will check and adjust every single thing on your guitar, bass, ukulele or banjo to ensure it is performing at its absolute best.

This is not a quick process but we believe every instrument should go through our process to acheive an exacting standard of playability.

Frets

We start with the frets on your instrument. All guitar necks move and change over time so we will make sure that your frets are nice and flat as we go up the neck. We don't want any high or low spots as this will mean your guitar will need a higher than optimum action and potentially suffer with fret buzz.

We check and properly profile the playing surface of the frets and then make sure the fret ends are finished off properly. The fret is then polished to ensure smooth string bending.

Truss Rod

Then it's on to the truss rod. This metal rod differs from guitar to guitar (some guitars such as classical guitars don't usually have a truss rod!) and basically controls the "relief" or curve of the neck. Not enough relief and your strings won't have enough clearance over the other frets when playing. Too much relief and you'll have a high action which gets worse as you go up the neck.

The heavier the strings then the more the truss rod needs to work. Proper adjustment in the workshop means that the action will be just right for the strings fitted to your guitar.

Top Nut

The top nut is super important and is one of the two open contact points of your guitar. The technician will check and cut each slot to make sure the strings both run freely but are not sitting in a slot that's too big.

The top nut also plays a big part in the action of your guitar so we'll hit that sweet spot between too low and too high.

Saddle(s)

Another really important part of your guitar!

On an acoustic, the saddle is cut to the correct height making sure the bottom is 100% flat and straight. This means the string can transfer its vibration properly into the body of your guitar.

For electric guitars, the saddles are adjusted to ensure your intonation is perfect. We will also match the saddles to the radius of your fretboard.

Bridge / Tremolo

The bridge affects the break angle and string height of your guitar and is also responsible for holding your saddles.

For a guitar with a Floyd Rose tremolo system or similar, the spring tension has to be just right to allow the tremolo to return to its "zero point" and keep everything in tune.

For guitars with standard tremolos, we can set it to float and be used both up or down like a true tremolo or we can lock the trem block back so the tremolo will only go downwards.... the choice is yours!

Intonation

Intonation is the measure of how in-tune the guitar string is across the length of the fretboard and a guitar with badly set intonation will get more and more out of tune as the string is shortened when you play.

Tiny adjustments are made to each string where applicable to adjust its length and ensure that the intonation is set just right.

Overall Action

Once all the above has been completed, the guitar is checked for playability and fine adjustments are made. This step brings everything together and means your guitar will be set up optimally.

Machine Heads

Every machine head is operated and checked for function. We need to ensure that the machine heads operate smoothly.

Electrics

All the functions of your guitar are checked to ensure everything is working as intended.

For acoustic guitars we will check the functions of the EQ system and controls as well as check the internal cabling and jack socket.

For electric guitars, all the pickups are checked for function and tonal response. All controls and switches are operated to ensure they are functioning properly. The jack socket is checked.

Other Parts

All other parts such as strap pins, bushings, tuning buttons etc are fully checked.

Dispatch

All our instruments get the same premium treatment whether you purchase online or instore.

If you have purchased online, your guitar will be carefully packed ready for dispatch. You will receive a tracking link via email.

Happy playing :)

Description

The Hidersine HEV3 Electric Violin Outfit 4/4 offers students, gigging performers, and experimental musicians a versatile full-scale instrument engineered for near-silent headphone practice and amplified stage performance. Combining standard 4/4 acoustic violin proportions with an active onboard preamp and flexible output connections, this electric violin delivers authentic bowing response whether plugged into an amplifier, recording interface, or headphones for private practice.

Active 9V Preamp and Under-Bridge Piezo Pickup

At the heart of the HEV3 is an under-bridge piezo pickup connected to an active 9V preamp system. The piezo transducer senses string movement directly through the maple bridge, capturing subtle dynamic accents, fast staccato bowing, and sustained legato lines with clear acoustic note definition. Onboard Volume and EQ controls allow players to shape their amplified voice directly on the instrument before sending signal to an external amplifier, PA system, or headphones.

Dual Output Connectivity for Silent Practice and Amplified Performance

Designed for multi-scenario playing, the instrument features dedicated audio output connections along the body. A main jack output connects to instrument amplifiers, PA rigs, audio interfaces, or external guitar effects pedalboards for live performance and recording. A dedicated mini-jack headphone output enables near-silent practice sessions without acoustic room bleed, making it suitable for home practice, apartment living, and late-night rehearsals.

Zebrawood Body Construction with Okoume Sides

The body is constructed with a zebrawood laminate top and back paired with okoume sides, forming a stable acoustic structure that resists feedback when amplified at higher stage volumes. The contoured frame retains traditional upper-bout curves, allowing players to utilize standard playing techniques and position shifts in upper registers while maintaining full shoulder-rest compatibility.

Genuine Ebony Hardwood Fingerboard and Fittings

Observing traditional lutherie standards, the HEV3 is appointed with genuine ebony hardwood for the fingerboard, tuning pegs, and chin rest. Dense ebony provides a smooth, wear-resistant fingerboard surface for precise finger placement across upper positions, resisting string pitting over extended practice routines. The matching ebony pegs maintain reliable friction within the pegbox, while a composite tailpiece fitted with four integral fine adjusters simplifies micro-tuning setup.

Complete Performance Outfit with Bow, Case, and Accessories

Supplied as a complete, performance-ready package, the HEV3 outfit includes all essential accessories required to begin playing immediately. The included bulletwood bow features genuine natural horsehair and nickel fittings for balanced weight distribution and smooth string tracking. A light formed styrofoam rectangular case with internal accessory compartments, carrying handles, and backstraps safeguards the instrument during transport, complete with a block of Hidersine rosin and a 9V PP3 battery.
