Why Buy from Olaf Grawert Violin Studio?

  • You will always talk to a real violin Expert (one who could make you an instrument or restore one if you ask, and not just a violin player)
  • You get better quality, because I pay more attention to every little detail that is important to string players when choosing instruments for the shop.
  • Being a violin maker as well as player allowed me to carefully choose a small selection of the best Instruments available, this means that the hardest part of your job of finding good quality is done for you.
  • Most importantly I choose the instruments for sound. They need to have a rich carrying clear tone. Of course instruments vary in tonal character.. there is always a good number of different instruments you can choose from
  • Every instrument in the shop has been carefully checked for quality materials and workmanship.
  • All Instruments in stock are set up to a professional level. I firmly believe that all musicians, students and professionals alike should have access to instruments set up to the highest standard. Playing an instrument is difficult enough without a bad set up.
  • At Olaf Grawert Violin Studio we make sure that absolutely every instrument that is sold is fully set up and carefully checked before it leaves the shopI often come across Instruments sold through shops that still need to have up to $385 of work done just to be playable!! That is a risk just not worth taking. Our instruments may cost slightly more than at other music shops, but you get hundreds of dollars extra value and the assurance that each instrument has been set up, played and fully inspected by a fully trained violinmaker.  Read my full story here.
  • I am always researching all instruments that are available. So when you buy an instrument with us, you will always find top quality and sounding instruments available in it’s price class.
  • I make sure that the pegs are easy to turn, that the fingerboard has the exact right shape, that the playing action is right, so the instrument is easy to play and that the sound is of good quality.
  • I only stock instruments that I can personally recommend as being of good quality.

The violin is playing just as beautifully as the day we purchased it

After hearing numerous very positive reports about The Violin Studio our family travelled from Townsville to Brisbane for a combination holiday & violin purchase. Choosing and playing violins from Olaf’s excellent range was a great experience for our daughter and his intimate knowledge and experience of all the instruments he sells is second to none. The violin is playing just as beautifully as the day we purchased it and with that and Olaf’s excellent service in mind I’d highly recommend The Violin Studio.

Sound quality had improved by 100%

I have seen Olaf for over 5 years now, and every time, I have left his studio smiling. Olaf has an extensive range of string instruments and products, and it is more than likely that there will be one perfect for you. I bought my instrument from him in 2012, and it has never failed me. It is clear that Olaf is a master of craft when you see your instrument after a service. Not only did it look just about new again, the sound quality had improved by 100%. I highly recommend Olaf’s violin studio as the go-to place if you are considering buying a new instrument or getting a service. He is very precise with his work, and he ensures that his jobs are done to the customer’s satisfaction. Thank you Olaf for your brilliant work!

We always come away with a beautiful instrument and my son with a new ambition

Over time we have purchased three violins from the Violin Studio for our son, as he has grown and needed to move to the next size. Olaf has a genuine interest in the musician and patiently shares his knowledge. In helping our son to find the best violin (within our budget) Olaf has been teaching him what he needs to consider when choosing a violin. Olaf is generous with his time, his knowledge, his enthusiasm for music and his encouragement for young musicians. We always come away with a beautiful instrument and my son with a new ambition.

Completely in love…

Many thanks to Olaf Grawert from

The Violin Studio

who has been my violin maker since I was a young boy.

I recently spent a few hours in his shop trying instruments until i found the one for me. For those of you who are Harry Potter fans, it was my Olivander’s wand shop moment!
Completely in love with my new axe, a 1920’s Herman Dolling Jr. from Germany.

….tone and playability are fantastic

The Lombardi violin has arrived safely in perfect condition.

It’s beautiful and the tone and playability are fantastic, better in person than the pictures and video could capture. It’s a wonderful instrument and will serve me well.

….I would definitely recommend Olaf to anyone looking to purchase a violin

Watching Olaf work on his YouTube channel has been a joy. He is both knowledgeable and skilful. I just knew that I could trust Olaf for my violin upgrade purchase.  I am very pleased and delighted that the violin far exceeds my expectations both in terms of physical aesthetics and sound quality. I never really understood the violin master setup until I played on my Giuseppe Ziardo. It really elevates my violin play as it is much easier to handle. It makes me want to pick up and play my violin all the time. The varnish that Olaf used for the Ziardo is excellent and it smells pleasant. The work that Olaf did on the violin gives a new experience when playing the Ziardo and I must say that it is a real pleasure to play. Thank you, Olaf for the excellent work and I would definitely recommend Olaf to anyone looking to purchase a violin.”

I am so happy!

Thank you so much! I received my new violin today (in perfect condition) and I just completed my first practice with it. I am so happy! The wood grain is amazing, even more beautiful in person than in the pictures. The tone and playability is perfect, just what I was looking for! The tone of the violin is sweet and yet has projection and clarity. It’s just lovely. Please tell Olaf thank you so much, I am so pleased!!!

The beautiful violin made it to my house today.  I was surprised it arrived so quickly. The packaging job was amazing.  I am so impressed by how beautiful the violin is.  The violin is playing perfectly, and I couldn’t be happier.  I am going to my violin lesson today and I can’t wait to show everyone this beautiful instrument.

I love love love love it!

Just letting you know the violin arrived today. All is well. I love love love love it! It looks beautiful and really sings. The pictures and video do not do it justice – even with my playing it sounds just gorgeous! I am so happy with my purchase and feel I have made a lifelong friend. I will treasure it every day. Thankyou so much Olaf for your amazing work (and for the very speedy delivery).

OH WOW, it SINGS!!

I finally got to tune and play the Lomont yesterday afternoon…..OH WOW, it SINGS!!

The sound is GORGEOUS and makes my old violin sound like a brick. I am so glad I upgraded to the maximum of my violin $$$ ability. She’s quite pretty too.

Once again, thank you for making the process so easy and sending the Lomont so quickly. I am in love….
