Johnson Strings has become my go-to for violin supplies. Their string inventory is comprehensive, well organized and easy to navigate on their website. Service is prompt, and products from high quality manufacturers such as Bois D'Harmonie are almost always in stock.
Thank you for sending me somebody's returned item. The box was filled with foreign newspapers and other persons's UPS shipping slips. Item itself was in good condition but not a good shopping experience.
We have been using Johnson Strings for 14 years, and I have never been disappointed. Whether stands, new cases, strings, or even rental violins when my daughters were very young.
Excellent instrument for a rental! Outstanding service! We love Johnson String! The violin did not come tuned, I wish we knew this because we were on a tight timeframe, but we worked it out.
Found everything I wanted, although I would have ordered more if more weren't out of stock. :) Easy website to use, quick delivery upon purchase. Will order again from Johnson Strings!
Very happy with the fast service and great price of my new violin strings! I saved $20 off what I usually pay for these high quality Helicore strings.
I got to know JohnsonStrings through our childrens school and have been dealing with them for almost five years. They are reliable, prompt and give good service.
I've never had an issue with them.
Product is as ordered. I have purchased from Johnson many times. This time, I accidentally ordered my "E" string with a ball instead of a loop. Too much trouble to replace. My mistake.
I've been buying JSI String Sets in Amazon, until a week ago I found out JSI website and noticed prices are the same. So I made my 1st order, and it was a smooth transaction with no issue through the website. Ran into an issue with one item received, and JSI promptly shipped out replacement.
This is my favorit place to shop for strings and other items that I might need. I like the free shipping on certain items. They fill my orders very quickly.
Order was easy to place, directions very easy to understand and follow. My grand son's cello arrived in time for his first lesson even without a great deal of lead time for our order.
Ordered a shoulder rest for my violin and received it within a week. Fast, dependable service! Have used on-line ordering before and now and never disappointed.
I was interested in the medallion cello strings because they were ropecore. They are brighter than helicore, but fast responding and a great choice for intermediate instruments.
Johnson Strings had exactly what I needed with an added discount and the product was delivered in record time. I liked that there was a catalogue in the box.
The website is easy to navigate, they have a wide selection of products, and shipping was surprisingly fast! Plus, the free shipping is greatly appreciated.
Recently bought an electric violin. Shipping was very fast (less than a week) and was very reasonable ($5). Love the violin's quality. Very pleased with the overall transaction.
It was easy to find and order the violin tailpiece in the size we wanted. Shipping was quick. I will order from Johnson Strings preferentially from now on.
Johnson Strings knows that my item was delivered. This is just a trick to get me to write a review. I thought I was dealing with a smaller company, not a large corporate entity.
Johnson Strings carries a wider variety of strings and accessories than what I can find locally. It is a great resource, plus the prices are reasonable and the service is quick.
I have received my daughter's first violin and Liked whole order process. Speedy delivery, well packed box and great product. I would love to order again and Highly recommended this places to order.
The violin tuner is great! It is small and unnoticeable. It is just right for keeping in prefect tune and no one will ever know you are using a tuner.
The process was easy online. The prices were comparable to other companies. Shipping was quick. I haven't had time to change the strings on my violin yet so I can't review the quality of strings
This was a contract renewal for my son's violin rental. It was very convenient to be able to renew the contract online instead of having to go to the store. Thank you for saving me the trip!
The violin is all set at the time of picking up, and the staff is very kind.
This requirement of 100 characters is annoying. It will scare reviewer away
It was my first time buying through Johnson Strings and it was a good experience. After I receive my order I wrote them an email and I received a very quick answer. Excellent job.
I can always count on Johnson string to have above-and-beyond selection and service. Really, I wouldn't consider ever using another vendor for violin music, supplies, and service.
