Nice shop! Just rented a viola for my son from this nice shop. Friendly service and much better quality than the other music stores I visited. They also gave me a couple of teacher's phone numbers. Overall, very helpful!
Rental prices expensive and be on guard When I went to Stevens violin shop I did not know what to expect when renting a viola or cello.

Mr. Knudsen, the ownmer, refuses to answer phone calls or e-mails. He refused to accept a registered return recepit letter. He has stolen my money and I have no recourse.

Stevens Violin Shop I brought in a old violin that belonged to my grandfather for an appraisal, and was told this would cost $65. They ended up not charging me as the violin was not very good. After they explained to me that my violin needed a lot of expensive repairs, I asked if I could look at some new violins. I tried some instruments and found that I liked most of the ones I tried.
