I was delighted to setup a wholesale account with “First Strings” string instruments from down at Nerang. These instruments not only sund and look great, but outperform most of the other instruments on the market at entry level and advanced alike. I particularly like the Sonore for entry level, Sempre for intermediate and luthier series for advanced.
These instruments have leapfrogged out of the well known Dalseno String Studio in Nerang and has been a growing buzz with strings teachers around Brisbane.
Run by David and Jenny Dalseno, First Strings has a strong players eye err… ear for instrument selection. Here’s a quick review of their “Sonore” violin at a great price point (around $450) for the emerging virtuoso to get started on.
First Strings supply a great range of instruments from beginner, intermediate and advanced ranges of instruments for violin, viola and cello. Best news for me they are and easy run on the highway too.
So try them at my place and take one home today. You could also make the run down to Nerang or buy them on line – we canstill be friends…jusyt tell them iddler Dan sent you 😉
I’m looking forward to keeping a few more First Strings in my Brisbane workshop…tell me what you want to see! UPDATE: I just set up some of their advanced Luthier range instruments, these perform comparably with instruments twice their price on the market today …wow!
