Violins

We're delighted to offer a comprehensive selection of fine, accessibly priced new and used violins. We offer the best of the new instruments such as Jay Haide, Snow, and Amber Strings, always priced competitively. In addition, we maintain an extensive selection of clean 19th and 20th century French, German and British violins directly purchased from the European sources which we've developed over the years. There's always a surprise or two, with occasional Italian violins to round out the upper end of our collection.

With the old violins, we receive them in the workshop, and the work begins. Most often, we'll start over with completely updated components. This means new pegs, dress the fingerboard, new bridge, strings, tailgut etc., and some aesthetic work on the varnish. The seams are washed and glued if necessary, and the results can be heard for themselves.....do visit us and consider some of these for a short approval!

The list shows some violins ready for sale; many more are in the wings awaiting restoration, or perhaps pending with customers. Do email us for accurate up-to-date suggestions for instruments in your price range!
