Can you repair this?

Some common repair cost

We do verbal/visual estimates for free on site. If you send us photos by email, we can give you an idea, but no estimates are given without a visual inspection on site. We try our best to give estimates close to cost, but unforeseen things can always come up and any large extra cost we will contact you about before going ahead. Written Appraisals are available for insurance or claims purposes for $45 each instrument.

  We never do expensive repairs on instruments that exceed their actual value, unless it's something of value to you and this is clear to you before we proceed. All repairs exceeding $100 require a 50% deposit.

How to restring your string instrument video

We try and be helpful and educate people about their instruments. Take a look at our videos on our Youtube channel Nowa Randall Crosby.

Below are two videos, the first on restringing, the second on humidity control.

Fully complete bridge rectangular $225

Belly bridge Martin, Gibson or any example provided $275
