Repair/Restore

To last a lifetime, a fine instrument needs periodic maintenance and occasional repairs.  Especially for students who are first learning to play, an instrument in good repair can make all the difference in the enjoyment of learning.

At Henry Bischofberger Violins, through examining and listening to your instrument, Henry can determine if it needs maintenance before any issues become serious.  When it comes to maintenance and repairs, the sooner an irregularity is identified and taken care of, the better it is for the life of the instrument.

With Henry’s expertise, experience, and fully equipped repair shop, he can skillfully repair and maintain your violin, viola, cello, bass or bow.

If you have an instrument in need of complete restoration, Henry would be happy to look at it and discuss its needs with you.  Some instruments are worth restoring and others may not be.  He will give you an honest assessment before beginning your project.

Customer Feedback . . .

"I want to say thanks for taking the time to discuss my daughter's not so great violin with me yesterday and also for tweaking the sound post for us. Even though you were very busy and we arrived without an appointment you still patiently and kindly took the time to educate us and offer good advice. As well as a luthier/violin maker you are a gentleman. I can see why your shop is bustling with customers, you're honest and ethical. " - Carl
