Violins: For Sale, For Restoration, For Repair
Old Violins have over 26 years’ experience in violin making, restoring, repairing and selling violins, violas, cello’s and double bass.
‘For donkey’s years Mr Purcell has repaired and serviced my old English double bass. It’s the bass I used on the recording of Lou Reed’s ‘Walk on the Wild Side’. Thank you Vince – you’re a wizard.’
- Herbie Flowers
We supply instruments to students, classical orchestral players and folk, world and jazz musicians. We offer violins for sale of good quality which are well set-up and in great condition.

- ROS HANSON-LAURENT, VIOLIN/VIOLA TEACHER
