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.
Great service, prompt deliver, nice product. I sent a message with a question shortly after ordering and got a response within a couple of hours. Great customer service.
I find the web site very friendly. The staff are helpful & welcoming when I physically shop there. The cello strings are fr Esther and arrive very quickly.
The products offered are of very high quality and very easy to order from on line. Their response is always helpful and friendly and their deliveries are quick.
Very satisfied with the prompt mailing of the strings I ordered. I did find that the promo code did not work and decided it was for the next order and not this one.
My new violin case is just beautiful. It was delivered exactly when it was stated to be delivered. My experience with Johnson strings is consistently outstanding.
Both browsing in the site and dealing with executives in the phone has been pleasant and rewarding. The team is highly efficient and professional. Congrats.
The guitar I ordered was delivered very quickly and, much to my delight, the sound quality was excellent, even though it was the cheapest guitar available. Needless to say, I was very pleased.
Gewa cello case is really sturdy construction and the chat service was very useful for me. And the best thing was its amazing price!
Now I can take my cello to my country safely.
The website was super helpful and easy to use! I was able to size the instrument at home and then pick up at the store. The service at the store was great. I highly recommend.
We used the music school pick up for my daughters violin. It was fast and easy. Very impressed! Will definately be using them as she continues to grow!
I have ordered from Johnson Strings a few times. For my most recent order, they forgot to let me know that my order shipped and therefore also did not give me a shipping number. I emailed them a week after my order to ask whether my order had shipped yet or when it would ship, at which point I was told the order would arrive that very day. Everything in the package was as expected except that one of the rosins I ordered was very cracked. JSI contacted me the day after I complained to let me know that they are replacing it. Although I am disappointed by their failure to let me know my package even shipped, this is the only time it has happened so far out of 5 or 6 orders I have made and their customer service was responsive and prompt each time. I suppose I would still give them an overall 5 stars given both problems with this order were resolved promptly and my other 5 or 6 orders have gone fine.
Also, their "Adjustable Musician's Seat" cello chairs have been my favourite chairs for cellists for some time. I highly recommend those for cellists and harpists.
I was very pleased with the strings. I ordered from two different brands, Thomastik and Larsen, and y'all sent exactly what I ordered. Thank you guys!
I was trying to tune my cello but ended up breaking the A string (Im a complete beginner) and I requested for a new one and they were so quick with the delivery
I received the violin string intact
My cello set had broken d string which needs to be replaced
I can send the string back if needed
Plese reply back if you can send the d string
I need this sent ASAP
Thank you
I chose JSI Special violin strings set which is G D and A Dominant strings plus E Pirastro gold string. Haven't tried the new string yet, but the rosin is excellent! At moment I have Pirastro Tonica on my violin and Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Gold Rosin was just the perfect match. My violin sounds more balanced and consistent, highlighting the characteristics of the Pirastro Tonica strings (even that they a bit old). Thank you so much for the fast shipping, the good price and excellent customer service.
Is working really good, thanks, Johnson's String. I have a question, when do I have to change the crystal, I know I have to do it every year but where do I get the crystal.
The three various items I ordered arrived within days across country. It arrived quicker than a letter! (thanks to USPS, 2 day shipping... surprise!)
I received my order of 2 bows for home trial. I'm happy and relieved that they arrived extremely well packed and on time as promised.
I ordered cello music books. They arrived very quickly and with a competitive price to the other music stores. Also had free shipping! Thank you.
The rosin came to my house quickly and was in great condition. Price was fine. This survey & it being mandatory is ludicrous.
What I needed arrived quickly. This book isn't available just anywhere and my son needed it ASAP. Thank you for fast delivery
My violin has a new home! It's beautiful & I trust it to keep my violin safe. Very reasonable price as well for the Black Friday sale. Thank you JSI!
Johnsons provides both Great service and products! It is a wonderful resource and I'll continue to take advantage of their expertise!
My son loves his violin case and I love the great price. Received in a timely manner and packaging was excellent.
