From the reviews
Had an appointment this morning to get my violins cleaned, tuned and new strings. The place was tidy, the staff was friendly and helpful (not something you see a lot anymore so very much appreciated). They seemed genuinely happy to help. I will definitely make the hour drive back here for future needs.
They are very nice here at this establishment. Very knowledgeable but humble to refer you if they feel you need a different Luthier to care for your instrument. I took a heirloom here and they were very honest and referred me to McPherson to repair my violin.
We have an intermediate string player and have rented from Antonio from the very beginning. As our son has grown over the past three years, so has his viola size. With advice they allow us to trade up no problems. Any issues with instruments, they allow us to trade it out for another instrument.
Excellent instrument makers. My viola and I have seen a lot together in the past 16 years; recently dropped back in for a black carbon bow- sounded wonderful and the gig went well! Ken and the gang were a great help! Shout out to local celebrity violinist Preston Charles for the 'pickup' life-hack so to speak.
Lessons at Antonio Violins & Ukuleles
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Antonio Violins & Ukuleles. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments and rentals on hand for exactly this reason.
