Buying an Instrument – Indonesia Strings

The buying of violins, violas, cellos and bows is a matter of trust.

Before deciding on an instrument you should seriously consider what you want. Is it for investment purposes or should it just plainly sustain it’s value? Is it going to be used in professional performances or merely for fun or as a beginners’ instrument? These and many other questions result in great differences in quality and tonal qualities. A professional setup and the use of fine components have a profound impact on the sound aspects. Therefore I test, adjust and modify to optimal performance every instrument sold by me.

Antique instruments can sell for staggering amounts of money, easily exceeding the price of a car or even a house.
