Best Stringed Instrument Maker Independence Near Me

Aaron Smith: I brought a Tenor Banjo and a Mandolin in for repairs and couldn't have been happier with my experience. They had everything I needed and the repairs were made by a competent luthier for a reasonable price. I've visited here several times over the years and am always impressed by their warmth and professionalism.

John P. Williams: Hands down the best violin and strings shop in the midwest. The Wyatt family makes you feel at home as soon as you walk in and they provide the most personalized service in the business. They have handled all of my violin needs for over a decade now. They're worth the trip whether you're near or far.

Lauren Heidebrecht: Very helpful and knowledgeable. Easy to make appointments with online and a no-pressure, warm atmosphere. I will be back!

Tyler Remmert: An indescribably awesome family-owned small business. A consummate luthier, probably the finest for hours in all directions. We drove an hour and a half to have our Knilling Bucharest serviced and spent half an hour in the shop dreaming of playing the Weibes & Vettoris. The Wyatts have a stunning range of violin family instruments for rent or sale. Entry level student models all the way up to centuries old masterpieces. I can't recommend this place enough.

Sarah Smedstad: Absolutely the best violin shop ever! Do not go anywhere else for your string instrument needs. They are super friendly, super knowledgeable, family owned business.

CJ Reece: This is a wonderful shop to make an appointment at. The folks inside are absolutely amazing people. Their selection of violins is incredible. Highly recommend coming here for your violin playing needs.

Kariann Noland: Have visited several times for my children's orchestra books, strings, replacement bows. Very quick and very helpful!

Brian Hill: Excellent knowledge and prices very helpful to students and teachers

Kate Kolek: We rented a viola from Wyatt so our daughter could join her school orchestra and couldn't be happier with the service and rental program. It is a little more expensive than other rental businesses, but you build up equity towards purchasing an instrument if you're interested and repairs are included. I know nothing when it comes to music and instruments, but the staff is extremely helpful and doesnt make me feel clueless.

Fixed my daughter’s violin while I watched..he could should sell tickets just to watch his mad skills....and one heck of a great guy to talk to as well..can’t go wrong trusting him

Brittany Piersee: Really appreciate Dan’s work! He’s helped me out a couple of times now. He could not be a more genuine and nice guy. Five star service.

james schaefer: Super knowledgeable, helpful, and kind. Love this place.

Leanna Johnson: I want to highly recommend this business located in Lee’s Summit, (K.C.) Missouri. Two years before purchasing my violin, I had sent an inquiring email to Mr. Lawrence regarding buying a violin. I played the instrument in school about 60 years ago, but did not have one. Mr. Lawrence took the time to return an email with very detailed info on what to look for, as well as a starting price. Two years later, I visited the shop with my husband and I ended up buying one, as well as a quality bow. Mr. Lawrence wasknowledgeable, friendly, and a real joy to deal with. I love my violin as much as I did 60 years ago and thank him for his initial reaching out and great kindness!

Andrew Hodges: He was really nice, and has amazing instruments.

Frank Dolci: Dan is simply the BEST!!

DJ Yearwood: He let me come in after hours (the store closed at 12pm and he let me come in at 5:50pm) because I was in need of a fine tuner and rosin because i have to play at church tomorrow and he got me everything i needed then when we asked how much everything costed he said "Nothing, all we did was play around. Go ahead and have a goodnight" I very much do recommend.

Jessica Cali: Very pleased with my experience with Dan Lawrence violins. Was in and out with 2 violins very quickly. Thank you!

D V: What is a violin? Never been here
