Most of us shop online now and teachers are often asked by students and parents for recommendations on which string outfit to purchase. When searching Amazon, one can be overwhelmed by the brand options and unsure as to sizes and accessories. Instead of googling for answers, it is often simpler to find a trusted one-stop supplier. My recommendation is Fiddlershop, for their quality selection of stringed instruments. There is a healthy price range to suit different budgets and the instruments are set up impeccably by in house luthiers. The response time to enquiries is impressively fast. Instruments are securely packaged and arrive rapidly. Click here for an affiliate link.
