Our Collections
Three instrument collections, one trusted source.
Collection 01

Our own curated range of violins, violas and cellos — selected for sound, comfort, playability and long-term learning. Suitable for lessons, home practice, exams, performances and progression.
Collection 02
Selected Trade-in Instruments
Better-value previously-owned Melody Strings instruments — checked, cleaned and prepared. Available at 50% of the original instrument price. Limited pieces; trial by appointment only.
Collection 03
Italian & European Vintage Instruments
A curated selection for advanced students, serious players and collectors — chosen for craftsmanship, tone, playability and long-term value. Each instrument comes with relevant certificate or documentation. Private viewing and trial by appointment only.
Setup & Comfort
A well-fitted instrument makes learning easier.
The right instrument isn’t only about price. Size, string height, bridge setup, fingerboard condition and bow balance all affect how comfortably a child learns.
A poorly set-up instrument can affect posture, hand shape, tone and confidence — and slow progress without anyone noticing why.
We help families choose based on the child’s size, level and learning needs.
