Violin Works is the Best! I've known the owner of Violin Works for a number of years now. When I was looking for an instrument he was recommended to me by my violin teacher. My teacher said that Jim (the owner) is who he always goes to and trusts. I found Jim to be extremely honest and trustworthy.

Nice, Refreshing Find This shop was a wonderful find. Very knowledgeable in highly trained staff. Courteous, helpful, honest. I was looking for something in the $2000 range and they had probably the better selection in Spokane. They did say they had some less expensive, as little as $400, but that wasn't what I was looking for. After talking with other teachers and players in Spokane, it seems as though Violin Works is one of the most respected sales and repair shops in the area......HONEST AND COMPETENT!!

Very friendly and most often recommended shop in the area. Concerned about what I wanted NOT what they needed to sell ! Very enjoyable experience.
