Most of the instruments, accessories, etc, which I provide for string players are supplied at reduced prices compared with the normal RRP. Please contact me for a quotation.

Student Instruments

I offer a selection of imported violins, violas and cellos all of which are professionally set-up in my workshop for ease of playing.

Prices range from approximately £150 for a beginners violin to £400 - £500 for a better quality violin which would include the fitting of Dominant strings and a Wittner adjustable tail piece.

More mature instruments are also available.

Strings

I maintain a stock of Dominant violin strings, and can supply strings for violins, violas, 'cellos and basses produced by Larsen, Pirastro, Jargar, the Thomastic range (Dominant etc), Astrea, Corelli and D'Addario. Strings are also available by mail order. Normal delivery is within two working days. Prices on request.

Bow Rehairs

I use the best white horse-hair supplied to me by Michael T Sowden, who produces what is probably the finest dressed hair in the UK.

Please ring me for a competitively priced quotation.

Hiscox Cases

Hiscox Cases have increased price levels by a very modest amount in recent years, ensuring that they supply their high quality cases at very competitive rates.

Hiscox Liteflite cases are manufactured using a unique composite double moulded construction, giving unparalleled protection for your instrument from a lightweight case.

A full catalogue and a quotation is available on request, or you can see samples in my workshop.

I also offer a range of alternative cases.

Instrument Repairs and Restoration

I continue to provide a professional service for the fitting of bridges, soundposts, pegs etc, and any other repairs required by my private customers, alongside the restoration work I receive from prominent midlands-based violin dealers.

I will also, free and without obligation, examine instruments with a view to identifying areas where work is appropriate, and, much more important - where it is not!

New Bows to Order

From as little as £20. Specific quotations within a given price range are available on request.

Repairs to Bows

Bow tips, frog parts, re-lapping etc.

Accessories

Shoulder and chin rests, Wittner tailpieces, mutes, rosin etc.
