We’re excited to announce the official launch of TheUpperString.shop — your new home for only high-quality violins, violas and cellos, brought to you by violin maker Joe McDevitt of (Fegley Instruments & Bows – Reading, PA) and Gregory Glessner (Homestead Strings – State College, PA).
For too long, students, families and teachers have had to rely on big-box rental programs that don’t have the proper training on setup, service, and sound. At The Upper String Shop, we’re changing that — one instrument at a time.
What Makes Us Different?
Unlike major retailers, we’re not sales reps — we’re luthiers, the owners and the operator’s. Every instrument we rent or sell is high-quality and professionally set up in-house for tone, comfort, and playability. No mystery setups or repairs. No VSO’s(violin shaped objects). Just honest craftsmanship and responsive service from people who live and breathe string instruments.
