Thank you Cameron and Michael ! Such a wonderful experience from my first contact until I picked-up my violin at the Fiddlershop showroom. The customer service experience was over the top and exceeded my expectations - I will definitely refer friends and stay in touch for future violin purchases!
Fantastic. Love this place. The salespeople are musicians or instrument makers so all know their stuff. The guy who helped me is also a violinist and violin instructor and he was super helpful and patient. They’re happy to meet to get things tested out. Prices are also much better than other places but the quality is equivalent.
Absolutely incredible service! Cameron was so patient in answering my questions and my requests. They gave us a private room where we can test out bows and had one of the employees play for us to help us make an educated decision. Wonderful experience! Definitely dont regret driving here. Anyone who comes here WILL feel at home and attended to.
Great service and friendly. I am so happy with the work done to keep my violin sounding great!
I’m a beginner violinist and purchased a Fiddlershop violin several months ago as my first violin. The Fiddlershop products have been incredible, but the customer service has been one of the best I’ve ever experienced from any company. They are knowledgeable, professional, and helpful. I cannot say enough good things about the products and customer service Fiddlershop has provided. Just astounding. If you’re considering a violin from Fiddlershop, you won’t regret it!
Went there with no expectations and was blown away by the genuine service, personal attention, knowledgeable and friendly staff and large selection of beautiful instruments for all levels.After a couple of hours of trying out many different instruments with the help of Michael, Pierre and everyone else (sorry I forgot some names!), I finally settled on one that I wanted but realized I was unable to buy on the spot. I detected no frustration or unpleasant feelings from anyone. They were genuinely happy that I found an instrument that I wanted and did not push me at all to buy or commit. I plan on buying it very soon and I am very thrilled to give them my business. Will be back!
I drove for an hour to get there but it was well worth it. Thought I needed a new bow but they were so honest to tell me I really didnt. I did buy several other things then got to experience playing a couple of electric violins, something I had wanted to do for a long time. Being a beginner with fairly horrific abilities, I give 6 stars to everyones patience and understanding while I played joyful noises.through the amp. Now, I have something on my birthday wish list and one more reason to make the drive back to Fiddlershop, hopefully soon.
Hello my experience in the store was great, they have good material violas, violins, and many accessories. But the most important thing was the customer service, I have to give it 5 stars because there are no more stars. ! Fiddlerman is a helpful person, attentive, and very nice person willing to help you with whatever you need. I recommend fiddlershop one hundred percent either online or in person...lol
Stop by and experience awesome customer service at Fiddleshop
I dont usually leave reviews, but Fiddlershop was so amazing that I am delighted to actually leave a review and give them 5 stars. I had already tried 15 violins across the metro Atlanta area over the course of a few months. After hearing several people mention Fiddlershop, I am so glad I made the trip down to South Florida to try violins there. From the moment I walked in the door, they were helpful, kind, never pushy, and even let me test all of the violins without knowing which one was which (my request). When the one I fell in love with was well under my budget and less expensive than some of those I had asked to try, not once did anyone try to upsell me. They were genuinely glad that I found the perfect instrument for me. They helped with my shoulder rest and setup and even gave me a cup of coffee and a snack for starting my 8 hour drive back home. Excellent products & Excellent customer service!
I researched a lot of websites and settled on Fiddlershop. The violin i received looked nice but the E string peg became loose within 1 week. I wrote to them but they just sent me some paste to put on it. I thought they would send me a replacement because it was just 1 week since purchase. Quite unhappy that the instrument because it became unusable within a week of buying. I would not recommend this place. Both product and service are bad. :(
Purchased a Ming Jiang Zhu 905 and a Fiddlerman Soloist set. Very happy with the communication, and the professionalism. The Fiddlerman Soloist came perfectly, and well packaged. Unfortunately, the MJZ has a little chip off. But It doesnt affect the sound or the playing. I would have give a 4.5 star review if I can, since that chip off doesnt not warrant a star off. Overall, very happy with Fiddlershop,
I wish I could give them 100 stars!!! I purchased a 1/8 violin from them, and it was a good violin, at a great price. It was a trade-in, so not their brand, but still an excellent violin. My 5 year old son, at the time, dropped it on the wood floor, and smashed the top. I contacted them, and they repaired the violin, for free! I paid to ship it there, but they paid to ship it home. After that experience I knew they would have my business. Fast forward a couple of years, my sons ready for his 1/2 violin. (A fried gave us their 1/4 violin). I got the Fiddlerman Apprentice Violin Outfit. It sounds great, and is beautiful. His violin teacher was very impressed, she now recommends them to her other students. I am currently anxiously awaiting his 3/4 violin we purchased yesterday.
Ordered some tools to work on my violin. Had a great online experience on their website which is very easy to navigate.All my requested items were shipped quickly.Thank you for your service. Stay Healthy.
I had an old viola that was in desperate need of major TLC. I found FiddlerShop randomly but have been beyond impressed with their expertise and level of service! Claire kept me in the loop every step of the process & the luthiers did impressive work giving my baby a new lease on life. Thank you for your commitment to excellence and perfection!
Spend a long time looking for “the violin “ that will fit my like, budget and skills. It was hard to choose but Fiddlershop violins are at class on there own. Beautiful, exquisite sound and the personalized service of Mike made it the best experience so far! I love my violin and highly recommend you give them a call.
Excellent monitoring and after sell service, even if I was in another country!
School was ready to begin the next day and my son asked if I had rented a violin yet because he was in the school orchestra again. Well, like always I started my researching (crash course style, night before) trying to find a music shop to rent the violin for the school year. After several websites I came across the Fiddlershop.com site and was totally impressed. I visited their shop the next day and Pierre himself greeted me at the door and welcomed me in. The staff were all cheerful, professional and very personable. Long story short, (because I can go on and on about this place) Pierre got me the violin I wanted, he played it for me to make sure it was tuned correctly, and I left with the biggest smile on my face (felt like I finished watching a concert). Fiddlershop will always be my go to place for anything violin. Great job to Pierre, Michael and all the staff.
Great experience, knowledgeable staff and great prices ! I’m just a student they took care of me ! Cheaper then Pawn Shop, just express your need !!!
Excellent customer service, very knowledgeable staff and owner, I have no issues recommending the Fiddlershop to anyone. An great family run buisness
I had the pleasure of visiting their showroom (which within its self was very impressive). This is a family own and operated business located in Pompano Beach Florida. The reason for my visit was that I had several concerns 1. To buy a better violin and 2. To see if my violin could be upgraded. The representative was pleasant, honest, patience and knowledgeable. Suggestions were made in a way I felt comfortable. The violin which was undated was done within a few days and the sound is amazing! My newly purchased violin (per my instruction) will be shipped on August 5th. Moving forward this will be my “go to place for all my violin needs! I highly recommend the Fiddlershop
Fiddlershop is one of the most ethical and customer service oriented stores I have had the pleasure to work with. Any concerns where swiftly addressed and any adjustments needed were handled with efficiency and punctuality. An overall wonderful experience.
Very friendly people. Everything was set up when I arrived. Pierre played for me 3 violin options that we previously agreed on by chatting online. They answered all my questions. I even had a private room for myself to play the violins as much as I wanted. I will definitely recommend buying from them. The quality of the violins is A1.
Top notch team and customer care. If you know anything about music, this is the place to visit
Firstly,My experience level is beginner. I purchased a fiddlerman concert model cello 4/4.This was hands down the best buying experience I have had. Excellent, patient, and professional, are just a few words that come to mind.There was a secluded comfortable space to play and talk about the instrument as well as try different makes and models.After I decided on my purchase the staff bought me to the back to teach me all of the different aspects of caring for and maintaining my new cello. It was amazing to watch craftsmen/women creating instruments all around me while learning about mine.After purchasing from fiddlershop I couldnt imagine getting an instrument from a big box store or amazon.Cliff
Excellent service and a broad selection of products to choose from. Highly recommend.
Best way to describe will be : Best in class! Great instruments quality and price, personalized service and trust.
I couldn’t decide which violin I wanted from the videos. So, I took a road trip to their new shop, what an awesome experience!!! Clare had 5 beautiful violins ready for me to try. Pierre played each one for me. (Worth the trip just meeting him and hearing him play!!!I would have been happy to spend the rest of my life with any of them...🎻)I was allowed private time to play them and narrowed down to 2. After Clare played them for me, (she’s awesome) I made my choice. The Bench Plowden is HEAVEN!! I am so excited to have it.If anyone has the opportunity to go, I highly recommended the total experience!!!
I needed octave viola strings from a specific brand. These are such a niche product that very few online stores offer these. Fiddlershop being the only one to offer them without needing a credit card I chose them for the order (all the way from the Netherlands!). Had a great experience! Was notified on time about some details of my order so it could be shipped as early as possible, arrived shortly after and everything was as Id like it to be.Definitely recommended!
Very nice people and high quality instruments. Thank you for helping us and also letting us tour the shop.
This place is awesome. My daughter got her first violin from this place. Customer service is incredible, and welcoming. Thank you.
I spent months researching a cello for my son that we felt gave us the value we wanted for the cost. We settled on an apprentice cello from fiddlershop and we have ZERO regrets. From answering questions before the purchase, making sure the product shipped carefully and quickly, to helping with a problem that we had shortly after the purchase they were amazing to deal with. I am so impressed with the service I received and I will continue to use them myself and refer all our friends!
Customer service was amazing. My son brought home a beautiful violin that he is so excited to play.
The moment I called, it was 5 star service; everything from the grand hospitality upon coming into the shop coupled with the expert knowledge and sweet violin playing from Christina. She took her time to show me all the models. I never felt pressured plus she kindly answered all my questions - I tend to ask a hundred or so. Her and the FiddlerShop team were super friendly! They made me feel as if I was part of the team kind of like family.Now when it comes to all the instruments, the photos nor videos do no justice to how incredibly beautiful the instruments are to the eyes and how breathtaking the sound is to the ears.If you can make it to the shop, you will be in for a great delight. If you are placing an order online, you are in phenomenal hands from an honest team whose focus is for you to soar into musical heights.Thank you, Fiddlershop for my beautiful violin!
We were very pleased with the customer service and the facility.
I have not played since 1977 when I was told I was not good enough for college. I had a stroke seven years ago. I was really sick and could not sleep and stumbled across Twosetvolin on Youtube. The boys recommended this business for folks looking to get back into music. I figured what the heck, why not. I could NOT be more enthused about a small AMERICAN company that cares about all clients...even those of us on the low end of the spending scale. Every need including the color of my case was met. FedEx is responsible for all the problemsI had after sale. Who the hell puts a fragile box on a hot asphalt driveway instead of a covered front porch? When I opened the box everything was well packed. The plastic protection was puffed. That should have been my first....maybe not. I was too excited and opened the plastic. The e string popped it was so hot. My husband was surprised I knew that was happening as I moved my head out of the way just in time. You never forget getting slapped in the face with an e string. I was able to find a local replacement. It took a full ten days for the poor critter to acclimate. They sent me a replacement e and some peg dope and the string mute which did not make the first trip. They also sent links to videos to help me once the violin said okay, I will live here. Loyal client from here on out!!!!!
I absolutely LOVE FiddlerShop! Their prices are extremely competitive, and the customer service is amazing. As a public school music teacher, money for instrument repair is practically non existent. I always feel when I go there, that I am getting a quality repair at the best possible price.
I had an absolutely amazing experience with this FiddlerShop! They were completely honest with the quality of the instruments and cases I was looking at and made sure I was 100% satisfied with my experience! Amazing people, amazing products.
My visit was phenomenal. The place is neat and lovely. The customer service is genuine. They fixed my violin and gave me great advice on how to take great care of it.
Great online service. Asked them to pick out a violin bow for me based on a number of criteria, and they delivered exactly what I wanted.
I visited from Vancouver Island as I found Fiddlerman a year ago when I got into violin. Im on my third one so far but I still wanted to at least take a pic outside on my way out of town. Well it turns out the shop was not only open but I was offered a tour behind the scenes too! And THEN my sister who drove me there and I both got t-shirts! Amazing and everyone on the tour was so welcoming and friendly. AND I got to play the concert and concert deluxe which is good because I wanted the concert but come to find out I preferred the deluxe. I also had the privilege of trying a very expensive violin out, which was a great experience. I am so happy I stopped by!
THE BEST shop ever! Great products and wow, what a fab staff!!
I went to the shop for a new bow and the E string of my violin also needed to be fixed.The person who helped us, Christina, was very friendly and knowledgeable and kind. The whole environment is wonderful and even though it was a long drive it was definitely worth it and I can see myself going back again!
All of you in the shop, we 💘 the way you do the personal touch with us. Harley Davis loves her bench made vilion. Thank You so much. Davis Family. Swanton Ohio.
I did a lot of research before finding this place. I found a violin quality ranking site and this name came up on it so I looked it up and was impressed with the sites violin reviews. I found a great priced violin and for the wood quality (ebony fingerboard, pegs, and fittings which makes the best violins), string quality (DAddario Prelude) and case (solid design with storage and temp guage) it was a steal. It took them a few days to put it together and ship it, about a week, also impressive since it was 2 weeks before Christmas. It arrived in perfect shape, already tuned and everything about it was immaculate. In case someone wants a great violin I got the OB1 outfit for about $300 even googled a $10 off coupon code. All in all this was the best experience and best product I have bought in a long time. Their customer service was also great when I called for an update since Christmas was coming and I wanted to know if I ordered it in time. You wont find a better, cheaper violin of this quality anywhere trust me I looked for 2 weeks.
Two and a half violins (2 + one very major repair) and a cello later, I can safely say that Fiddlershop is high up on my favorites list. Every single member of the team is a pleasure to work with, whether I am making a big purchase or just replacing an inexpensive accessory. Good folks with good products.
Fiddlershop is my new go-to for all things violins! I called the shop on a Monday, put in an order, and requested to pick it up the same day. I live in Orlando and was willing to drive to Pompano.Mike was AMAZING! He helped me every step of the way. He provided detailed information on each instrument, explained recommended upgrades, and best of all, was able to ship it out the same day, and save me a 3hr drive. It arrived the next day, and I absolutely love it!! As a full time musician it’s my primary instrument, and it sounds/looks incredible.Honestly, I was not looking forward to the shopping/buying experience for a new violin. It can be stressful with all the options and such, but Mike and his staff made it seamless and fun. I can’t thank you enough!Jaqua~
Nice place to rent your violin or cello! The owner knows petty good the business. Friendly and good prices.
Visited their shop/warehouse. Excellent service. Great place full of violins of all levels.
Every person there is professional. Real luthiers are setting up instruments. The owners and employees are solid gold people.
Purchased a Yamaha electric cello. The customer service during and after the sale was tremendous. Great products and pricing. Will do more business with this team!
I was in a time crunch for a gift--I had to have it on a certain day. I had spent too much time trying to decide on a student level violin. I called the Fiddlershop on a Wednesday to be CERTAIN they could ship it to me and I would get it on the next Monday. The gentleman I talked with checked and told me they were busy but could still get my violin out that day and have plenty to time for Monday delivery.The charge showed up on my card that day, but I didnt get an invoice/confirmation or a tracking number. I called back the next day (Thursday) and was told that because of the holiday rush, mine would not be going out that day. I explained the situation and that I had been told it would ship the previous day. He put me on hold to see what could be done.He came back and told me my order would be pushed ahead and would ship that day, he would take it to the shipper, AND they would pick up the cost of expedited shipping so that it would make it to me on time.They went WAY above and WAY beyond to make me happy even though I was buying such a low-cost (probably very low profit margin) violin.They really took very good care of me and saved the day.I cant praise their customer service enough!
The violins there are really good! I bought a violin, and it was less expensive than the other violins not in the store (but it was still expensive, $3,100) I recommend this place, violinists, violists, cellists, and double bassists.
This is an excellent shop to work with. Honest, fair, patient and the quality of their products exceeds expectations, yet they are also humble. Highly recommended.
Friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff! Although, much of their business is online we dropped by to purchase strings and rosin and couldnt be happier. We were greeted by one of the owners who took the time to recommend rosin and confirm my string choice before picking them from stock and delivering my order. Next we were treated to coffee and a tour of the shop. Yes, I will return.
Love this shop! I work at a music school and refer the students with us to order their instruments through this store. ❤️
They have the best violins at great prices, they also carry amazing basses and cellos. The showroom is nice and the service is incredible.
It was great meeting everyone at Fiddler Shop. Everyone was friendly and professional. Excellent service and very helpful, hope to see them all soon and will definitely do business with them in the future. Thanks Everyone
Fiddlershop was so amazing! Customer service was beyond our expectations! Fiddlerman and the rest of the crew was so sweet and attentive with our son we truly felt at home! Recommend this shop 1000% and will totally be returning when my son is ready for his next violin
The best string musical instruments money can buy, and the service is incredibly good. Try them you will like them
What an awesome place with awesome people! Have had both of my fiddles redone by their luthiers and they are all top notch!I am thrill to have Fiddlershop and Family in my community!!!!!! If you are in the south Florida area, stop by. You will be happy that you did.
Great people, great products and great service.Best regardsWilliam Carmody
I ordered online. I am really happy with my violin. I am glad that I bought from them.
Great visit! Thanks for the tour. I look forward to fiddling into the future...
Great environment! Great knowledgeable people. Family owned.
I have never left a negative review about anything before. I paid over $300 to have my cello repaired here. The main thing that needed repairing was that my end-pin was slipping, but they found other things that needed repairs as well which I agreed to. When I went to pick up my cello after being told it was finished, the end-pin was still slipping. They cut notches into the end-pin as a quick-fix. It worked for a few weeks but today I had to take it in somewhere else because the end-pin won’t stay in at all anymore, and I am unable to play it. Now at the new place I’ve discovered that the other repairs they did were not done correctly either, and it will cost me another $500 to fix it. No one here was particularly friendly, and I wasted hundreds of dollars for nothing. I did buy a nice new bow from the store, and it was a good price, so I do think it’s a good place to shop, just not for repairs. At least not cello repairs.
Theses guys are the best very professional and customer service it’s awesome the owner it’s very kind and friendly definitely I would highly recommended 5 stars 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠
Friendly staff, efficient service. Purchased a Fiddlerman Apprentice Violin Outfit. Brought my kit to a local shop whose owner said it was a great value. Definitely pleased with the Fiddle. Thanks Fiddlershop!
All the staff were professional and competent while providing concerned, friendly care in the set-up of a cello that I am considering purchasing. They are willing to go the extra mile to make sure I am comfortable with the instrument and their work.
Such friendly staff! I was greeted by a very nice lady who showed me around first. So helpful in letting me find the violin of my dreams! I am a newbie at playing the violin and I tried out different kinds, lefty and righty, since I am a lefty. I ended up going for a righty for a few different reasons. I spoke to Felix, the luthier, and he gave me expert advice as well as Claire who so patiently explained things to me. The other gentleman, Pierre, tried two violins out for me to feel which one was superior in the same type to make sure I got the one that had the sounds I wanted. They really all took the time for me and I really had a wonderful experience. I love my Fiddlerman Concert violin set!! 😍
Great place with friendly and experienced staff.
The customer support and service is outstanding from competitors in the industry! On top of that they offer the best Instruments your money can buy! If you are in South Florida, its definetly worth a detour to check out the store in Fort Lauderdale and try out some instruments!
I just want to say that the staff at Fiddlershop is the best. Yesterday I decided to pay a visit to Fiddlershop to buy a new shoulder rest. I dont live close to the store, so its a real road trip to get there. I hit lots of traffic and arrived just as the store was closing. I was heart broken!! Luckily, some of the staff was still there, and they let me come in!!! They took the time to help me select the perfect shoulder rest and a new rosin. I never got the feeling that they were anxious to leave. Thanks guys for being so patient.I have been in to this shop before to have my vioin worked on. The vibe of this store is pure joy and love of stringed instruments and music in general. You can tell that everyone at Fiddlershop really loves their job. So, I cant recommend this store enough.
The soloist violin was 5 stars in craftmanship and sound. It was also packaged very securely. Fiddlershop will require a signature to be delivered.
Violin / Fiddle shop, the owner is extremely helpful. Had a great experience and got an instrument Im proud to own.
Great staff and wonderful atmosphere. Great selection too.
I got my first good violin here, they have a nice selection, their own branded violins are very good for the price. Head to get a new chin rest, they replaced it for free.
Mike and Alex made the best out of a poor situation offering help and rectifying the situation to the best of their ability. I couldnt have asked for anything better as far as customer service, they went the extra mile to make me a happy customer.
Always a pleasure to visit the Fiddlershop! The happiest and most helpful instrument shop in the area.
Had a broken Bridge, stopped in and Felix took care of it right away while I waited.Great Service!
Absolutely amazing!!! Love this place
Great service. They are nice people.
Fiddlershop is the best bang for your buck. They offer the best instruments and accessories your money can buy. Forget stentor or Cecilio. Fiddlerman is the way to go!
Visiting Fiddlershop is a lot of fun.
Great people, great instruments. Well worth it.
Better customer service ever. Good prices and products
Im new to the unfretted string instrument world (Ive played guitar for around 10 years) and was looking to try my luck at learning a new instrument. I looked up some info online about various instruments and pricings before I stumbled upon Fiddlershop. I gave them a call and was met by arguably the friendliest receptionist Ive ever spoken to. She took the time to give me various information on cellos, violins, and violas and discussed with me what would be optimal in my price range. I went down to the shop and was greeted by each individual worker and they really made me feel like a member of a family. I finally rented a cello for a week and was given a discount for being local. When I went to return the cello, I had a friendly conversation with a different receptionist until the owner of the shop stumbled in. He gave me free rosin, a shirt, and a free 2 week rental trial of a violin. The most important thing I gained from this however was a new standard in customer service. After countless outings at GuitarCenter and SamAsh, I know the typical instrument salesman rundown and wont be made a fool of by inexperienced workers trying to make commission. This shop has officially set the standard of what I consider a music shop to be and Id recommend anyone to contact them, regardless of skill level or budget. Fiddlershop for life!!
Great store!!! The owners are one of a kind!!
Amazing place and people!
Kind service & good price
Fantastic service and great instruments
Amazing EXPERIENCE !
There is no other place on the east coast!
Very friendly!
Massive inventory
Excelente service. I came to Fiddlershop after a horrible experience over a shop in Boca raton.I was looking for violin for my 6 year old and they received us gladly, educated us, showed us all the range of instruments they had available for my daughter size, played for us, and showed us their beautiful shop. We had the opportunity to be attended by the owner, Joe, and Roger. This people are into the love of string music and I had the most wonderful experience and will recommend to all. Also, good ra ge of prices.Excelente servicio. Vine a Fliddlershop después de una horrible experiencia en otra tienda en Boca Ratón.Yo estaba buscando un violin para mi hija de 6 años y ellos nos recibieron muy bien, nos educaron, enseñaron todo lo que tenían en inventario, probaron los instrumentos, y hasta nos dieron un tour por las instalaciones que son hermosas.Esta tienda se dedica al negocio del amor de la música de cuerdas finas . Los recomiendo. También,los precios son buenos.
Lovely family business with the best service! Highly recommend :)
