Cello neck repair – Fingerboard

This cello repair involved resetting the neck but also a new fingerboard. Fingerboards can sometimes come unglued if the instrument has been store for a long period in less than ideal circumstances. As you can see in the picture there is cross hatching which helps add bite for the glue and hopefully keep that fingerboard in place!

A testimonial from Rachel Stonham

I was given this violin to try out while my previous one was being serviced. I wasn’t looking for a new violin at the time but I was immediately taken with the quality of the sound – in particular the range of colours it could make, which was exactly what I was trying to develop in my playing.

After visiting several other makers, I ended up deciding on this one because I felt there was a lot of potential for the sound to develop, and after having it for 6 months I’m still finding even more depth and range.

The service was great and I was surprised at how reasonable the price was – it was a really good experience all round.
