Why Customers Choose Us
It’s indeed a pleasure to have a Bass Luthier in the Decatur area. Andrew and his staff have worked on two of my Basses in the past. I’ve found them to be very professional with great customer service. Very satisfied with the level of service I’ve received.
The staff seem to be knowledgeable and experienced. The repair prices quoted were reasonable. Now I'm waiting for good things to come!
Our daughter needed an upgrade and her teacher recommended RSV. We were pleased with our experience with Andrew Henke the owner/operator. He was attentive, made great suggestions, and our daughter was able to get something she really liked, great choices! Excellent experience! Highly recommend!
Just wanted to give a HUGE thank you to Joel! He went absolutely above and beyond to help me find the perfect violin upgrade! Joel really listened to what I was looking for and got together five beautiful violins for me to try. He was so helpful with the selection process! I tried my two favorites on trial and it...
I'm an adult beginner to the violin and Andrew at Ronald Sachs in Avondale was incredibly helpful. He took care of my very used, bought at a street fair violin. Setting up my new strings, showing me how to hold the instrument properly, and doing me a favor of playing a song on it so I knew it COULD sound...
Nothing but positive experiences in person or on the phone with helping my 6th grader get started on the violin. Store manager Joel is always great and helpful to work with. Prices are reasonable and instruments are good quality. I'm glad I decided to go here instead of a generic music store.
Can’t say enough good things about Ronald Sachs and the staff. We started with a viola and even tuned up my personal violin. They are patient and great to work with. My son moved on to cello and when it was damaged badly at the school, Ronald Sachs replaced it, per the insurance (GET the insurance!). If anyone asks about...
Never have I been more impressed with quality of repair and setup of instruments! Ronald Sachs helped me get back up and running and every violin I picked up was perfectly setup and you can feel and hear the care and attention to detail. I haven’t had an experience like this since Bill Weaver in the 90’s. I’ve been performing...
Excellent for new students who need a payment plan. Makes violin affordable for us single parents. They also suggested an amazing tutor. Thank you
My husband and I are music teachers with a studio of 40+ students. When my daughter dropped her 1/8th size cello and broke the bridge we were so frustrated. We live an hour away from Ronald Sachs in Athens, GA, and it is very challenging for us to get over to Atlanta. I knew we couldn't make multiple trips, and...
Great service, I had a missing E string, I went to buy a string, nice guy there, helped me picked out a string, and helped me changed it out. Great price and great service. Confused on why the website don't have much strings available, i recommend calling the shop first to see if they have any in stock

Violin Restoration and Sales in
Atlanta, GA
With our headquarters in Atlanta, GA, we have served the Southeast as a premier violin shop for more than two decades. As a instrument retailer and Luthier, we specialize in the sale, rental, repair, and restoration of stringed instruments, including the violin, cello, viola, and bass.
The quality of a violin or any other stringed instrument is determined by its craftsmanship. Well-made instruments improve with age. On the other hand, poorly built, inexpensive violins will degrade in performance over time.
As a second generation violin maker with nearly a quarter-century of experience, owner and luthier Ronald Sachs and his team produce superbly crafted stringed instruments and provide exceptional customer service. Our services include professional repair and restoration for violins, basses, violas, cellos, and violin bows.
Instrument Setup and Tonal Adjustment:
We offer tonal adjustments and custom setups to these stringed instruments to optimize their play ability and tone potential.
If the violin, cello, bass, or viola is of fine quality, it has potential to be fully restored. Certain types of repairs are more challenging and costly, but our highly skilled violin repair and restoration professionals can deliver outstanding results. Just bring us your violin or other string instrument and let us determine whether it can be restored.
If you are looking for a cello for sale, string bass for sale, violins for sale, upright bass rental, or violin rental, we have you covered in Atlanta, GA.
For more information about the violin repair, violin rental, bass restoration, and other repair and violin sales we offer at Ronald Sachs Violins, call us today at 770-931-2440 or send us a message through our contact form.
