Bellwood Violin is an excellent resource. We were able to rent a quality violin to start studying this instrument as an adult learner. The main shop repairs, sells, and rents violins (and larger stringed instruments). Also, there is a studio for teaching the violin to children. Parents will welcome the accomplished instructor and the ability to start the learning journey with a good quality rental violin. Later as the student shows dedication, this is an excellent shop for purchasing. Another reason this shop deserves respect is keeping their doors open when the number of music instrument stores seems to shrink every year. It was a bit of drive from my home to this shop, but absolutely worth the extra effort.
