I use their services for 3 years and I am so pleased with the fact that they don’t charge for tuning the instruments and are always ready to give helpful advice. I will recommend Hoffman Strings to every one who want to rent their instrument.

Great Service, Great Prices

Hoffman Strings was one of the rental choices suggested by our Music for Youth program when my son began playing violin last year. The rates were competitive, so I signed a contract with them. This year, my son dropped his violin at a group practice, onto tile flooring, and guess what? Violin was in two pieces. We did take out insurance, but I still felt terrible going into Mr. Hoffman to ask for a replacement. He was more than gracious and commented that "these things happen." I asked if he would be able to repair the instrument and he said, "Probably not. But we'll get you set up with another good violin." Great customer service and a wonderful experience for us. Highly recommended!

These people offer the greates...

These people offer the greatest service. The owner help me and the other worker was very helpful and very nice. My 6 year old daughter wanted to play violin. They went to the shelves and pulled amny different sizes till they found the right size. The teacher was very impressed witht the tone and qaulity of the very small violin. I needed a Suzuki book they had the books in stock so I did not need to go elsewhere. I am very satisfied, and love it. It was very old world!! Thanks
