We carry fine violins, violas, cellos and double basses by Samuel Shen Musical Instruments. Our team works directly with Samuel Shen to bring the best of his instruments directly to our customers.

Violins range from $375-$2,500 in a variety of levels and sizes. Most are either Stradivari or Guarneri copies.

Shen cellos are found in the hands of orchestra professionals, as well as in hundreds of school programs and rental fleets across the USA and Canada. We carry cellos from $500-$4000.

Basses by Shen are the leading bass sold in the US in the sub-$10,000 range. We carry basses from $1,100 to $12,000.
