THE MANNER IN WHICH AN INSTRUMENT IS "SET UP"
IS CRITICAL IN ACHIEVING OPTIMAL SOUND
.

What is "set up"?
Set up consists of many factors. Bridges and soundposts are the two most important.

Bridge
Bridges are not alike. We select the most "tonally responsive" bridge for your instrument. We use only the finest aged bridges imported from France. We then cut and fit the bridge specifically for your instrument.

Soundpost
Soundposts are not alike. Our posts are made of a "Superior" grade of spruce. They are hand split, tested tonally and finally carefully fitted to your instrument.

If your instrument is not sounding great, send it to us. You'll be glad you did!
Many clients come to our shop looking for a new instrument. We end up adjusting their old one and saving them much money.
