My mission

We will inform you about the value of your instrument and give you a quote on the work that you want done. We will give you all the information you need to make an informed choice.

Repairs

The materials we use are from excellent quality and tested for years. These materials are especialy selected by us, based on quality and good sound production. Of course we stock seasoned repair wood. We will match the available materials to your double bass to maximize sound production.

  • Replacing bass bars and back braces
  • Full restorations

Valuations and certificates

There are situations where you will be in need of a valuation or certificate. Maybe your insurance company wants to have more proof of value or you want to sell your instrument and need information on price and provenance. We will provide you with information on provenance, the state of the instrument including the repairs done and the value of the instrument. In all situations we need to see the instrument and therefor it is best to make an appointment.
