Travel-Backpacker Violins and Fiddles Violins and Fiddles specifically designed for travel when instrument size and durability are important
Adventurer IIc Travel Violin The Adventurer IIc Travel Violin (also known as a backpacker violin or fiddle) is just over 3" wide, but has a full 4/4 string length. Due to our innovative tuned porting and other trade secrets, this instrument has the volume and power of a full-sized violin or fiddle. The Adventurer IIc Travel Violin is very similar in appearance to an historic (18th Century) pochette or "Dancing Master's" kit fiddle. Indeed, it looks very much like our own extremely popular Neil Gow Pochette. It can be thought of a a modern pochette.
This is the instrument that many of our customers have been waiting for. Over $100,000 of design research, consumer research and technical R&D went into the new Adventurer IIc Travel Violin.

Mountaineer Backpacker Fiddle The Rickert Mountaineer Backpacker Fiddle is a really skinny (but full 4/4 length) travel fiddle that is extremely durable for the most punishing environments. The Mountaineer Backpacker Fiddle, offered in only as a kit currently is designed to accommodate a Wolf center-mount chin rest. The instrument is just 2" wide and is standard 4/4 length (body just under 14" and total length about 23").
If you know anything about Thomas Jefferson, he would buy this instrument in the blink of the eye...oh, wait--he did!
WANT TO PLAY A FIDDLE LIKE THE ONE THAT NEIL GOW (one of the founding fathers of Scottish fiddling) played. THOMAS JEFFERSON often played a fiddle of this type as well (yup, the President was a fiddler as well).

All cedar version of the Rickert Travel Master Pochette, using waterproof glues and finishes that are also resistant to wide variations in temperature and humidity. Very nice acoustic power and bass overtones.

Wolf Special Chin Rest The Wolf Special Chin Rest, rather than being attached by a double screw or two separate screws, utilizes a single extremely strong screw and foot. The Wolf Special, when used on a full-size violin, can be mounted anywhere to the LEFT of the tailpiece or just to the RIGHT of the tailpiece, resulting in the cup being center-mounted over the tailpiece. On a backpacker or travel violin, the Wolf Special is always mounted to the RIGHT (i.e. the center-mount position)
The cup of the Wolf Special is covered with a soft-cushion of hypoallergenic material.
