I've been looking for a place to get my fingerboard taped, and was so relieved when I called and they said that they could help me out! Not only did she help me with this, she also helped me tune my violin and, noticing the bridge was crooked, put it back in place. When I offered to pay, she said it was for free. I was really blown away by this, and insisted on at least buying something. I came home with a ready-to-play violin and a beautiful new rosin! Thank you, Forte Strings, for such a great experience. Really looking forward to my next visit!

When I was a broke college student buying my first "real" violin, Dustin showed me a selection of his handcrafted violins all within my budget. 5 year laters I'm still using my wonderful violin.

If you're new to buying string instruments/accessories, come here for great advice, prices, and quality. Thank you for everything, oc violin!!!
