Throughout the lifespan of your stringed instrument, you will inevitably encounter various occasions that call for its repair, particularly with continuous use. With over three decades of experience and expertise, we handle your instrument with utmost care, meticulously attending to every detail, assuring discerning musicians that their cherished instrument is in capable hands.
When addressing the repairs needed for your instrument, such as cracks, we ensure a comprehensive restoration process. The cracks are skillfully mended, reinforced, and the varnish is expertly touched up, guaranteeing the instrument’s functionality, acoustic qualities, and aesthetic appeal. In the case of open seams, we utilize special sturgeon glue, renowned for its ideal properties when it comes to instrument repairs. Should there be any issues with the neck or scroll, such as a pegbox crack or widened peg holes, we are equipped to undertake the necessary repairs.
Our inspection goes beyond the instrument’s external appearance, extending to its internal components. We conduct a thorough examination to ensure every aspect of the instrument has been carefully assessed before commencing with the repairs.
