Olde World Violins

I reached out to William with a short-turn request to help me learn a piece after 18 years away from the violin. William was gracious with the last minute scheduling and helped me piece my old violin back together. Additionally, he literally wrote out the sheet music on the spot as we listened to the song in half time, and provided finger cheat sheets for me. All in all with two lessons with William I was able to surprise my wife with a song at our wedding. William’s skill and experience allowed him to take an unconventional request and make it a success. What a kind and lifelong gift that he was able to provide. Thank you William!

I originally ordered a Charlie Ogle Violone in G from Olde World Violins in November 2019, but unfortunately the order was caught up in the COVID-19 pandemic and I was not able to receive it until May 2021. William Lockard was very accommodating in helping me to decide exactly what features and accessories I wanted and to assure me that it would eventually be delivered. He was extremely kind and friendly and I certainly would not hesitate to purchase any other items from his store.

I'm so glad to have discovered Olde World Violins. I was looking for a 5-string cello, and William Lockard talked through different options with me and was extremely helpful throughout the process. I am very happy with my 5-string cello by Jay Haide. Thank you, Olde World Violins!
