Quality Repairs

Trustworthy Technicians

Imagine taking your instrument to your friend’s nephew, who is a hobbyist woodworker…

and he’d love to get his hands on an “interesting project” and you’d like to spend as little as possible on the repairs.

When he’s done with it (after months of pestering him to get it back) you faintly recognize the instrument you handed over, but somehow it seems worse.

It looks as if he drew on it with red marker and now it has a mysterious buzz.

You give him the $50 you promised and start searching online for a new instrument - one that doesn’t look like it was used as a prop in a circus.

How much money and time are cheap repairs costing you?

Unlike your friend's nephew, our luthiers (fancy term for violin makers) have training from expert violin makers and restorers around the country. We pride ourselves on repairs that disappear and make an instrument beautiful and easy to play.

The 1st time.

No clowning around.

How many times have you missed a lesson or a class because your instrument was in the shop again?
