Classic Violins Shop

Within the past year, I’ve purchased both a new violin and a new bow from Classic Violins. In addition, I’ve taken my instruments there for repair and service numerous times, and I’ve never been disappointed. The service is consistently exceptional. I always enjoy my conversations with the staff, who are friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. We’re lucky to have such a fine establishment in Mundelein, and it’s a privilege to support them 100%!

Hand made instruments, excellent service and payment options, professional instruction. Awesome shop.

I am a part-time professional violinist. Recently, I took my 31-year-old violin there this month for a long overdue cleaning and upgrade on accessories. This instrument is my pride and joy, so I wanted to make sure it was in expert hands. I was very pleased when Stephanie took the time to listen to my questions and then bring one of the violinmakers over to look at the violin. He made recommendations for cleaning, adjustments, and the right kind of new accessories, and he made sure I understood his advice. They also did a beautiful job identifying and fixing a crack in my bow tip that I didn't know existed. The work was done two days sooner than they estimated, and my violin looks and sounds better than ever. They follow COVID protocols and were masking in the shop, for which I was grateful. I am delighted with the expert skill, fair pricing, and great customer service at Classic Violins!

just a good place when we couldn't fit our instrument into our car they helped us

Gloria was very courteous and prompt in guiding us to find just the right violin for our daughter. My son has been enjoying playing his cello which we got at this store about a year ago. Great customer service and a very lovely place and people.. Thank you.
