Violins
Most people will have
no trouble recognising a violin. After all, they're a commonly used
instrument. But fewer people understand just how complex the violin
is, or how different one can be from another. If you are thinking
of buying a violin, it's really important to look at and play a
number of different examples. The size, shape and sound quality
can vary quite noticeably from one instrument to another. One violin
may be tens or hundreds of years old, a second may have just left
the craftsman's bench. Which one is better? Do you like the sound
projection of a French violin? Chinese made violins are just for
beginners, or are they? Does a crack in an old instrument matter
if it's been properly repaired? Like the violin itself, buying one
is complex.
Simon Dubber has been
selling violins for many years and as a restorer quite literally
knows them inside out. Come to Simon Dubber Violins and you will
be able to try a range of instruments, old and new, of various grades
and nationalities. Simon will happily chat to you about the violins,
or leave you quietly to try them if you prefer. Here you will find
instruments almost always set up ready to purchase, expertise on
hand if you need it, and prices which are sensible. If you can't
find what you are looking for here, Simon may be able to track down
something suitable from other colleagues in the trade, so it's always
worth asking.
