Yamaha YEV104 Pro Electric Violin - Natural/Brown | Piano Gallery, Idaho Falls
The Yamaha YEV104 Pro electric violin represents the pinnacle of electric violin innovation, meticulously crafted to deliver the authentic feel and sound of an acoustic violin with modern electric capabilities. This professional-grade instrument features a hollow body construction that produces richer, more acoustic-like tones with exceptional responsiveness. Designed for intermediate to professional players seeking maximum expressive freedom in both solo and ensemble performances.
Product Overview
The YEV104 Pro showcases premium construction with a spruce top and 2-ply maple soundboard that creates natural acoustic resonance within its innovative hollow body design. The instrument features distinctive side slots that enhance the acoustic properties while maintaining the benefits of electric amplification. The elegant natural and brown finish provides striking stage presence that complements its powerful, resonant sound.
Advanced engineering includes a walnut frame construction with maple neck and fingerboard for optimal playability and tonal response. The instrument incorporates Wittner fine tuning pegs with internal gears, allowing for quick, precision tuning even during live performances. At approximately 510 grams lighter than previous models, the YEV104 Pro matches the weight of a traditional 4/4 acoustic violin for comfortable extended playing.

This innovative pickup system delivers exceptional signal clarity and dynamic range, while the redesigned pro circuit ensures strong output regardless of amplification setup.
