Violins
We always have an extended stock of violins ready to sell in our shop.
They range from student instruments to handmade master instruments, and include both old and new instruments. We also try to keep 7/8-size violins regularly in stock, as they can bring noticeable relief when playing with a short arm or small fingers.
Finding the right violin is not easy.
You should take your time. Come by and try it out at your leisure. If an instrument seems particularly interesting, you may also try it out at home or in the concert hall. We will give you a week or 10 days to decide. Our advice is: wherever you might go to look for a violin, never let anyone pressure you to buy.About the question …
… whether an old master instrument is actually better than a new instrument, entire books have been written, and tests are often carried out to prove one or the other.
A dealer who specializes in old instruments will inevitably recommend an old instrument. And someone who makes only new instruments obviously wants to sell them. The truth – as so often – lies somewhere in between. Even if we make new instruments, we also love the beautiful old instruments.
Certain old Italian master instruments do indeed have outstanding tone. The price difference is enormous, however, and a close examination of the price-performance ratio may fall in favor of a new master violin.
Among the new ones, there are also truly excellent concert instruments.
In our workshop, we rent out student violins starting at ¼ size.
Rental contracts are usually open-ended and have a notice period from one month to the end of the following month. In principle, you can also purchase your rental instrument. Purchasing it usually only makes sense once you have reached 4/4 size. You can also put a rental instrument to the test for a few days and try it out with with your instrument teacher before signing the contract. Of course, the violin also comes with its matching bow and case.
Rental rates start at 17.85 € (plus 5€ insurance, if so desired) per month
We will be happy to make an appointment with you so that you can convince yourself of the sound of the instruments and bows in our workshop.
