The Raggetti RV5 is the next step up from the RV2 and suits the intermediate to advanced student. Better grades of wood are selected for the RV5, which is crafted in the Raggetti workshop by builders trained in the traditional Cremonese fashion. The top is close-grained European mountain spruce, expertly graduated and tuned. The Himalayan maple back begins to show flame and curl at this level. The oil varnish has been refined over years of production for the Australian market.
As with most FPS student outfits, the violin has a lightweight tailpiece with inbuilt adjusters for easy tuning. The pegs, fingerboard, chinrest and endpin are all ebony and fitted to the instrument.
