About us

About ForteViolen

Forte violins originates from our enthusiasm and passion for violins. Since 2015, we have been sharing this enthusiasm with violinists, violin teachers and violin makers in the Netherlands and abroad. Our collection is characterised by carefully selected, hand-made instruments that are full of character. Every instrument we sell is in good condition and ready to play. We also provide excellent service and personal advice. As part of our return policy, you can try out the violin for 30 days. You also have a trade-in guarantee and you will receive 100% of the original price. 

Trial

Would you like to view and try out instruments? Please make an appointment in advance. The violins and bows can be tried out in in Oosterbeek. If you haven't been playing long enough, I can demonstrate the sound if desired. Would you like to switch to another instrument? Please bring it with you. This way, you can better compare the sound. If one or more instruments appeal to you, you can try out up to two for ten days. This gives you time to try them out at your leisure, also in your own environment, and to demonstrate them to teachers of fellow musicians. Do you have any questions? Please contact us.
