The smallest details of your rental can hold you back from becoming the player you want to be. Allow Upper String Shop to take care of the set up worries while you craft the perfect practice routine. Professional grade set ups performed on student rentals is what your learner deserves. Limited knowledge and technique of the violin, viola, cello, or bass should not keep you from access to set ups given the same care and attention as professionals.

Unlike online rental companies, our instruments are hand-adjusted, properly set up, and ready to play right out of the case. A well-set-up instrument can make or break a student’s early progress, sound, and overall enthusiasm for learning.
