About Us
“SchwAn Violins repaired my violin by adjusting the bridge to its proper heights (a job which had been poorly done elsewhere). It now sounds great! The cost of repair was very reasonable. Moreover, the owner was very patient and took time to explain things in detail to me. I plan on going back for all my repair needs and would recommend him highly to anyone who is looking for an approachable, friendly, and above all, knowledgeable conscientious and competent luthier.”
“We used to buy our violins only from online catalogs unsure of their quality. Sometimes they sounded alright, but more often, these instruments disappointed. However, with the opening with Schwan Violins, we no longer had to go through these ordeals of hit-or-miss. We had the opportunity to try instruments out first and even got to see a snapshot of how a violin is made...”
Here’s what some customers have to say about us!
“I am a cello player and I teach students. One thing I am happy to have Schwan violins near me is my students can have professional services, their parents (and I) don't have to leave home too far for buying or renting.”
“As a long time violinist, I’m always looking for a music store that can provide good quality accessories and maintenance. Schwan Violins, provides everything I need, be it a new set of strings, a bow rehairing, or even some general advice. In addition, Schwan Violins is a great resource for string players of any level, for they have a great range of instruments that are a pleasure to play!”
“It is a very well organized, small, intimate little shop...Very professional and kind, and I almost felt a if I was purchasing something akin to a child, the way I was subtlety asked about what my needs were, how I would be using the instrument, how long I have been playing... as if to make sure I wouldn't hurt it. It was very endearing!”
