Services
<\/strong><\/span>New construction<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Is done both on my own initiative and on order. There is a good stock of new and older instruments.
Repair <\/em><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Small work according to standard tariffs; larger jobs require an estimate. An estimate \u00a0is without obligation\u00a0and usually free of charge.
Bows <\/em><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Redo of bow-hair is often necessary, but is up to the musician to decide. Most of the other repairs can also be carried out. I like doing this; well, inexpensive and quickly.
Trade<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Violin building is my profession, is central to the activities and forces to\u00a0a certain degree of restriction. The \u00a0 work will be carried out in a residential house; there is no shop and no stock space, so that the\u00a0trade there is limited stock.
Valuation<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Valuation of instruments is not done as a service. It is improper and often counter-productive. Whoever owns something of value knows that in most cases themselves.<\/p>\n
