Barnesviolins LLC by Timothy Barnes

Barnes Violins is everything you want and need from a string shop. Virginia and Tim are as knowledgeable as they are personable. I appreciate how quickly they responded to my needs, the quality of their instruments, and the ease of transaction. Additionally, they are wonderful musicians who care about this community. Highly recommend.

Barnes Violins is the best violin/stringed instrument store in all of South Florida, bar none. Tim and Virginia have been taking care of my needs for the better part of 20 years. I have ALWAYS gotten incredible customer service, quick turnaround, and great quality of work. I will never take my violin elsewhere!

Virginia Barnes is a wonderful person to speak to all the time. Her staff as well as herself provide useful insight to what it is I need to get done. She has worked on my Viola several time as well as my bows, and has provided quality and satisfactory work every time. I highly recommend coming to this place if you are a string player.

I am so grateful that I was referred to Barnes Violins. Tim and Virginia are so nice, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. I was able to rent a violin for my 6yr old and then easily purchased a stand and music books for his lessons. It’s a very personable experience and I am so happy to support our local business. I highly recommend Barnes Violins. Also, super easy pickup and purchase. Curbside right in the truck in case you have concerns.

I had a welcoming experience when I went to get my son’s first cello. Mr. Barnes explained important information about the instrument and how to care for it. The Barnes’ handle everything with such passion and knowledge. If something is wrong, I can go in and they will take care of it immediately. They’ll give us a loaner or replacement if necessary. The Barnes are on top of things and very helpful. I also got a violin for my younger son. Great establishment!
