Violin Maintenance
Hi there,
Okey, we're in the middle of the European Classical Music Culture and somewhere out there I know there has to be some violin maintenance/repair shops for my old Magyar Violin's bridge and keyboard. It's not that it's in a bad condition but it certainly needs a pro to spend a good half an hour on it.
If anyone knows of this type of a maintainance guy or a shop please let me know.

PS: By telling me the right guy, make sure that you'll be doing a great job for me and for my violin but most probably my neighbours and my wife will never talk with you again... :=)
Thanks
Serkan

Hi there,

well, I don't really know about violins, but, there is a guitar luthier in Bld Carl Vogt. I don't have the name here, but is close to Rue du Village-Suisse (in front of the cementery).
If he cannot make anything with violins, I'm sure he will know where to do that.
Best,
Gonzalo

Sorry, I just mistook Bld Carl Vogt with Bl Saint George. The place is in St. George, the rest is ok (close to Rue du Village Suisse and in front of the cementery).
Cheers,
Gonzalo
