All our pre-owned instruments are only sold in perfect working order and have an in-house six month warranty. OUR SALES PHILOSOPHY: Fresh out of the box is NOT necessarily a good thing for a musical instrument! Our repair staff inspects and sets up every new instrument that we sell. Therefore, the customer gets the best playing and sounding instrument possible. OTHER SERVICES: • MAIL ORDERS TAKEN. • WRITTEN APPRAISALS. • BOWS REHAIRED AND REPAIRED. • CASH FOR OLD STRINGED INSTRUMENTS…ANY CONDITION. WE BELIEVE IN OLD-FASHIONED CUSTOMER SERVICE! REPAIRS The Halifax Folklore Centre has a complete repair shop for fretted and bowed stringed instruments. Free estimates are provided on any repair. Just bring your instrument in its case to the store for an evaluation. We handle everything from minor setups to complex restorations, with each project receiving the same dedicated care and attention. Repair and set-up can make a vast difference!! Don’t give up on your instrument until you have shown it to Tom. All stringed instruments can be adversely affected by changes in temperature and humidity, as well as usage (or abusage?). We repair cracks, adjust action and intonation,etc. for optimal playing condition and tone. After 51 Update description
