21.01.2022 These violins are going to a school as part of their big order. Does GB Violins supply fractional & student instruments too? Absolutely!
21.01.2022 I just received an email from BAM that they put their prices up from this month. Furthermore, the Australian dollar lost 10% of its value in the last 30 days. This means that prices for instruments, bows, cases, strings, and all accessories will rise according to the change in the exchange rate. If you buy your strings, etc. from overseas, it may be a good idea if you place an order rather sooner than later. My instruments, bows, cases, strings, accessories are at the old pri...ce level for the next 27 days. Limited quantities of BAM cases are also available until the end of July or until stock lasts. Please enquire for availability. See more

08.01.2022 We were greeted very nicely upon arrival at the airport. And the best of care was taken with our guitars. Thank you Virgin Australia and Perth Airport for takin...g great pride in selecting employees who are great at their job while having the utmost respect for fragile musical equipment. Unnecessary and disappointing. Come show your support for the terrible ground staff at Perth airport by coming to amps and having a good time. It's the end of the year. Doors at 8

06.01.2022 In emergencies, the smartest thing to do is to reduce the pressure of the strings. Not doing it, could further damage the instrument. Please follow these steps: * Release the tension of all strings as much as the bridge can be removed from the instrument * Carefully remove the bridge by sliding its top towards the scroll * Lay a protective cloth/tissue under the tailpiece * Make sure that the finetuner screws are in the highest position * Place the bridge (foot pointing towar...d the scroll) between the cloth/tissue & tailpiece * Slightly tighten the strings by the pegs, making them just tight enough to hold the bridge in place * Check your insurance * Take the instrument to a qualified professional as soon as possible * Would you be frightened to do the steps above, please pack your instrument carefully, and see a professional straight away. * Collect all loose parts or pieces, and pack them safely with the instrument See more

02.01.2022 Well, I admit, releasing the string pressure would not have been much help for this Australian made cello. It has multiple soundpost cracks and a bass bar crack on the top. Also, a huge soundpost crack on the back.
02.01.2022 2/2 ... Two days later the bridge is back to life again. You might ask, but no, it was not boiled in water :)
02.01.2022 What do you see good or bad in relation to the bridge and the E string? (Gagliano 1780 Italian violin -was brought to my studio for a vital varnish restoration)
