The workshop set up   In our workshop, we check and set up every violin we sell, regardless of the model, or the discount applied to the price! Our workshop process ensures that your violin will be in good playing condition upon receipt. Beware of student instruments offered without this service, as instruments straight from the factory are not set up, and the process requires technical knowledge, experience and the right equipment.
