Why Local String Instrument Service Matters

High strings, slipping pegs, a warped bridge, poor bow hair, or the wrong size instrument can make a beginner think they are the problem. At Atelier, every rental is prepared by a string-focused shop so Westport students begin with an instrument that supports their progress.
Correct Sizing
We help match students to the proper violin, viola, cello, or bass size and provide free size exchanges for growing students.
