The Acoustic Pro Violin features ZETA's patented E-Series pickup system. The 
E-Series pickup system utilizes a traditional maple bridge, which is fitted with our 
patented piezo crystals, then sealed with a protective coating. Dual patented piezo 
crystals are utilized, for a full-frequency response. It is the dual piezo crystals, 
which allow the violin to be amplified.  
 
ZETA's piezo crystals have been designed in co-ordination with Stanford 
University's Music Technology Department, specifically for use with stringed 
instruments. These piezo crystals differ greatly from the ribbon transducers 
commonly found in other types of electric violins, and are exclusive to ZETA 
instruments.  
 
The E-Series pickup system is best known for it's authentic acoustic tone, as well 
as resistance to feedback.  
 
INTERNAL PREAMP 
 
The Acoustic Pro Violin features a powerful internal preamp system. This 9-volt 
active preamp has been optimized to reproduce an authentic acoustic tone, and is 
exclusive to ZETA Performer Series violins featuring the E-Series pickup system. 
 
SHOULDER REST 
 
Your ZETA Strados Acoustic Pro Violin can be used with any shoulder rest - feel 
free to experiment with different models to find the best fit and most comfortable 
shoulder rest for your playing style. 
 
TUNING PEGS 
 
The ebony tuning pegs are designed to hold the strings at pitch for long periods of 
time without needing adjustment. The fine tuners behind the bridge provide 
control for normal daily tuning. The pegs are tightened by the same procedure as 
on a traditional acoustic violin. For best results, push the peg inward toward the 
peg box while tuning. 
 
 
 
 
STRINGS 
 
Your ZETA E-Series Classic Violin comes equipped with a fresh set of ZETA's 
E-Series violin strings. These strings have been specifically designed to optimize 
tonal output of the E-Series Pickup System (which is a feature of the E-Series
