I have been renting violins of every size for my 3 children for the past 8 years. Hoffman Strings is professional, very knowledgeable, and has always provided good quality instruments. The prices are fair and they offer everything needed to play a stringed instrument. I also like that they are a small, family owned business.

Terrific locally owned music shop. Repaired my son’s cello for a very reasonable price. They hand-make string instruments here so they really know their stuff. Knowledgeable, friendly service and a truly local business! It’s a little tough to find as it’s a tiny little house tucked behind a larger one. It’s worth the hunt, though. We’ll definitely be back!

There is nothing quiet like having a shop that specializes in your instrument. I found this shop from a recommendation by my violin teacher. There customer service is great with offering a loaner violin, while I left a violin there to get new pegs. Also I was totally anamored with the fact that they could specially make a bow with green horse hair.
