Matt Charleston SC - 5/5 — Anonymous I purchased my very first harp with Vermont Violins. It is a beautiful Dusty Strings FH-26, cherry. I appreciate how Vermont Violins had various options of different brands, and even new and pre-owned harps. After a hard decision on which harp would be my playing companion for some years to come, the ordering process was easy. I had questions about my package, and I received very quick and helpful responses from the folks at Vermont Violins. My harp arrived to me safely (schedule a delivery time with a signature), and in the expected great condition. When it is time for me to graduate up to a bigger harp, this company will be the first I check in with what they have to offer. - 5/5 — Anonymous From beginning to end, trying and purchasing a Richelieu viola was effortless. I had no idea there was a shop making fractional sized violas with such a deep rich voice. I stumbled on them in an online search. Staff were super helpful and answered all of my questions and sent a couple instruments on trial. I also really loved the adjustable Gewa cases my trial instruments came in so of course, the cases sold themselves. I plan to return for a Richelieu line violin in the future as well. If you aren’t finding what you need locally, why not an in-home trial, right?! I’m so glad I did! Thank you again Vermont Violins, this was exactly what I was looking for. - 5/5 — Anonymous I ordered a new violin case from Vermont Violins and they not only were super fast with shipping but they gave me personal updates on when it would arrive and were extremely communicative throughout the process. I love the violin case and I always have my students buy strings/music from them when they can. Love supporting small/local businesses! - 5/5 — Anonymous I'm now a retired orchestra director from one of our public schools. As a piano and trombone major in college, I really appreciated Vermont Violins for all of the terrific advice they gave me! I appreciated it so much that I also bought a viola from Vermont Violins and now play viola in a local string ensemble! Can't thank Vermont Violins for all of the advice over many years! ## FAQ **Q: What service areas does Vermont Violins cover for instrument rentals and sales?** A: Vermont Violins serves customers in Vermont, New England, and the entire continental USA through their rental program, with easy online registration for distance rentals.
