Every single Violin, Viola, Cello, Bass, etc. at Manselle's Music Shop has been adjusted in our store before it is taken out to the showroom to be sold or rented. Each instrument is carefully examined and we perform many of the following adjustments to new instruments; 

*We fit a new bridge to the instrument or refit the existing bridge.

*We fit new high quality pegs to the instrument or refit existing pegs if they are of high quality materials.

*We restring our instruments with better than stock strings.

*We rehair bows with Siberian or Mongolian hair (WE NEVER USE SYNTHETIC OR BLEACHED HAIR!!!)

*We adjust the sound post, and sometimes replace the soundpost and then adjust it to ensure a well balanced tone.

In addition to those basic adjustments we frequently plane fingerboards, replace tailpiece adjusters, replace tailpieces, replace fine tuners, fit or refit endpins,etc.

Our Band Instruments are cleaned with STATE OF THE ART TECHNOLOGY! All of our instruments undergo a deep cleaning process with our ULTRASONIC degreaser/cleaner which helps save the life of the horn’s finish & is enviromentally safe.  Our Ultrasonic machine will clean small and large instruments (like a Baritone) without harmful chemicals!!!

Quality is of the upmost importance to us, and it shows with the instruments we carry.
