Restorations

We have a fully equipped workshop in which we can perform the most exacting restorations. Instruments are painstakingly taken apart in order to reinforce damaged areas, or replace damaged pieces. The utmost care is taken to reassemble, and gently touch-in the varnish to blend with the original finish. It's not unusual for a damaged instrument to actually sound better than ever after a careful restoration! It gives us the opportunity to secure blocks, linings, and other items that might well loosen over decades of playing.
