Hi,

Do you offer stringing of instruments at your shop? I am coming down to Brisbane for the weekend and was thinking of stopping by your shop to make a few purchases. I was given the strings as a present and wondered if you re-strung them at your shop.

Thank you,
Tara.

Nice App. Also check out the . MSO's Encounter site on the Web for a music education app developed for a secondary school audience. It was developed in 1998 (13 years ago!) before ipad and iphone existed.

Comment on Care and Maintenance of your Instrument by Simply for Strings Blogger

Hi Jinaraya, We recommend you use a harmless varnish polish like Viol polish which will both clean and condition your instrument without stripping or affecting the varnish. If you'd like something a little stronger we recommend Hills Cleaning Preparation which will work more effectively as a rosin build-up remover however, it is best to test this cleaner on a small unnoticeable patch of varnish first as it is a strong cleaner and can effect some varnishes. With either of these products it's best to use a soft, lint-free cloth and only use small amounts of the product. It is important not to get these cleaners/polishes on the bridge of the violin as they will soak into the un-varnished timber and create a dull sound.

My daughter has just begun to play the violin and I have recently found that there is a buldup of rosin on the board as she has failed to clean it. I have no idea how I would clean the rosin so that it goes back to its poriginal condition.

Thanks for the contact details. I phoned the QANTAS number today and spoke to someone straight away (press option 1 for medical equipment). Turns out I can take my guitar as checked luggage (in a hard case naturally) on a flight next week from Sydney to Roma via Brisbane for free as part of a el cheapo economy fare. I made them make a note to that effect in my booking just to be safe.
