Appraisals

We offer appraisals by our experienced owner and instrument expert who have been in the industry for over 35 years. If you need an appraisal for insurance purposes or would like to take stock of your precious possession, give us a call or come by for more information: 800-284-9788 or 210-349-9788, locally.

We love to see old and fine instruments, if you have recently inherited a string instrument, stop on by and we will be happy to give you a verbal appraisal of what repair work may need to be done to bring it back to playing condition and what the approximate value would be when in salable condition.

Be aware that there are a lot of fake labels in instruments, chances are that the violin labeled “Antonus Stradivarius 1716” is most likely not the real thing but that does not mean that it is not a good quality instrument. Let us help you in identifying exactly what you have.
