Collection: Violins

OUR VIOLIN SELECTION

For someone trying to find their new violin, we pride ourselves on the quality of the instruments in our robust stock. Crafted by contemporary and historic luthiers worldwide, we hope our inventory of fine new and antique violins will cater to a range of players—from those just beginning to professional soloists. For the former, our excellent student violins have a consistently lovely tone. For players of smaller stature, we also offer a broad selection of undersize violins. More info on instrument rentals here. 

We can ship instruments and bows for those who would like to try them outside the Los Angeles area! In addition to violins, we also offer violin bows, violin cases, and violin strings. 

To try an instrument or a bow (or several!) in person, please make an appointment! This will ensure the instruments and bows you would like to play are in the shop and we have space (and staff) to accommodate you. The best method is to call or text us during business hours. (This is also the case if you need to coordinate shipment to try an instrument.) To text, click the small orange speech bubble on the lower right-hand side of our website. To call, our phone number is 1-818-246-0278. You are welcome to email us, but we respond quickest via phone and text.

Overall, we are dedicated to providing the highest quality service to *all* of our clients. Metzler Violins is comprised of a small-but-mighty group of passionate musicians and expert luthiers and restorers, all of whom are eager to support players in their ventures, whether they are just beginning or have been musicians for a lifetime. As such, we offer a wide range of services including appraisals, repairs, sound adjustments, and restoration to ensure that your instrument sounds and looks its best.

VIOLIN BOWS

For those in need of violin bows, we maintain an inventory to complement that of our instruments. Our diverse roster of bows for sale include those of history’s most celebrated makers as well as from contemporary workshops. In addition, we have an inventory of carbon fiber and fiberglass bows, again ranging from those for beginners to professional players.

VIOLIN CASES & ACCESSORIES

We also carry many violin cases and accessories. As with all of the products in our store, we have ferreted out the best items available at different price points in hopes to give our customers the choicest options no matter their budget. Overall, our cases will safely protect your instrument—and often with style. We also have dozens of rosin options and, if there is a need, can help you in your selection. Our violin accessories also include everything from shoulder rests to mutes and more. Some accessories, such as chin rests, are available only in-store as we suggest players try them in-person prior to purchase.
