"When I kick in the distortion and jam on my 5 string Zeta, I look out into the crowd and see a sea of hands waving in the air, fists pumping and heads bobbing up and down. THIS is rock & roll. I'm no violin geek ... I'm the coolest kid on the block."

The ultimate evolution of digital MIDI-capable electric violins, Zeta's Jazz Modern model brings together the best of solid-body design and high-tech electronic MIDI capability with the trademark futuristic look of the Zeta electric violin.
Zeta's famous Jazz violin pickup delivers a clean, pure violin tone that is favored by artists ranging from jazz great Jean Luc Ponty to the sensational Vanessa Mae. Whether used as an analog pickup or a digital MIDI pickup in conjunction with the Zeta Synthony II MIDI Controller / Synthesizer (sold separately), the Jazz pickup system provides the ultimate in clarity of string tone without feedback.
Zeta's proprietary active internal preamp system increases the power of the pickup signal and filters out extraneous overtones. This state-of-the-art system delivers a wide range of amplification flexibility, supporting a variety of tonal characteristics adaptable to diverse playing techniques and styles of music. An internal 9-volt battery provides over 1,000 hours of service on average.
Individual string digital outputs allow the use of each string as a separate MIDI channel through the Synthony for maximum MIDI controller capabilities. Access software notation programs and MIDI applications, using the Jazz Modern Violin as a MIDI controller.
Zeta’s Modern violin body design employs simplified yet elegant contemporary lines. Extreme waist cutaways and a highly sculpted back relief create a lightweight solid body design. With the key reference dimensions of a traditional acoustic violin, the Modern violin body maintains the positional cues so important for familiarity of feel and proper intonation.
An innovative "bolt-on" neck design provides structural integrity at the neck/body joint and is available in 4 or 5-string versions. The bodies are lightweight Basswood in high-gloss opaque colors, or beautifully figured Maple Top bodies in high-gloss Trans & Burst colors.
The Jazz Modern violin features a standard maple neck with ebony fingerboard, ebony chin rest, high quality tailpiece with fine tuners, ebony tuning pegs, on-board volume control, standard ¼" output jack, and multi-pin MIDI output jack.
The Jazz Modern violin is factory equipped with a set of steel electric strings, specially manufactured for Zeta.
The Jazz Modern violin is truly…the Ultimate Sound Experience
