  Stamford Strings is here to help string players of all ages and abilities. We are trading at our bricks and mortar shop in Stamford and here at our online shop, offering you a personal bespoke service at all times.
​
Our aim is to inspire every players' confidence in their instrument's sound and performance. Our ethos is optimise the experience every player can have with their instrument, regardless of their budget.
​
​ With training from some of the best experts in the world from The Newark School of Violin Making and The Cambridge Violin Makers, Stamford Strings' workshop associates offer a professional and bespoke instrument repair, restoration and set up service for violin , viola, 'cello and double bass. 

We specialise in showcasing the work of new makers, especially British and European up and coming makers. We carefully source instruments for playability and sound. We are very exacting on set ups and everything we sell goes through our workshop for a thorough check up. With the help of local professional players we test out our set ups and experiment with string choices until we have found the best sound.

As well as selling handmade instruments, we are also suppliers of good quality student and factory made instruments, as well as strings and accessories for all the instruments of the violin family.

We accept #STAMFORDCARD for 10% off all accessories, cases and strings. For web orders, please email us with your membership number and a photo of your card and we will send you a discount code for your purchase.
