I have been renting from Bob Murphy's for several years now. They have always provided top notch service for my rentals and have always had equipment … More available. I decided to transition to the next level with a purchase. They helped me pick a violin out with honest and insightful guidance. They gave me a great credit since I rented from them. With that, I was able to invest in an even more quality violin. Highly recommend supporting this Mom and Pop store so they can continue to service the community for many more years! -

Super happy that my son's violin teacher recommended Murphy's rental for his violin instead of buying yet another one from Amazon or the classifieds. … More The rental is a much better quality, and a higher price segment, than what he was using at school.Murphy's also has a superb onsite repair facility. When his strings broke a few weeks away from his state exams, they were able to replace them within minutes - no wait time, no second visit to the store.As an added benefit - the rental portion of the monthly fees converts into credit for future instrument purchases, in case he decides to stick around and upgrade his instrument a few years down the line. -

I love this place so much! It has the best selection of wonderful violins and they are very nice there! I’ve been renting with them since April of 2023 … More and I’m so very satisfied with the 2 instruments I have rented from them. I’m planning on buying an instrument in April and they are very helpful when it comes to looking for the right one. Bob Murphy’s is the best! Edit 6 months later: I purchased a violin in December of 2024 handmade by Bella Leeb in Budapest, Hungary from Bob Murphy’s Violin shop. Not only was this the best decision I’ve ever made but my friends and family think so too. They are just terrific there and every time I leave the shop I just can’t wait to go back again. When purchasing the instrument they were outstandingly helpful and let me take my time playing on the instruments. Thank you Ryan and Rob for helping me buy that instrument and also for picking out a really nice case for it a couple months later. See you soon! -
