Brand Research:
NS Design was founded in 1990 by famed
instrument designer Ned Steinberger to develop electric string instruments.
The primary focus is on bowed instruments - the violin, viola, cello and
double bass. Ned explains, "Bowed electric instruments have been made since
the mid-thirties. Unfortunately, most of these instruments are the victims
of the misplaced idea that an electric instrument should sound exactly like
its acoustic predecessor. I want to take it a step further ? I want to see
what these instruments can do when they are set free." NS instruments are
currently being "set free" by artists such as Laurie Anderson, Les Claypool,
David Darling, Tony Levin, Rob Wasserman, and many others.
