William Harris Lee, Chicago, 1998

Selling my amazing, beloved viola. Has been recently fully refurbished and valued by Bridgeworth & Neitzert London. In perfect condition.

This elegant 397 mm, 15 5/8" viola (model 270) from the workshop of William Harris Lee & Co. in Chicago is a pleasure to play and has great depth and warmth in the lower registers and a singing brightness on the D and A strings. The instrument is quite lightweight and the neck is slim and comfortable for those with smaller hands.

William Harris Lee violas are made by a team of experienced luthiers in the company's workshop in Chicago, Illinois.
