Instruments
Rare opportunity to own a Laura Wallace violin without waiting for a commission! The King Joseph violin I built in 2021 is available for sale in Vancouver. Please contact me to find out more. laura@wallaceviolins.ca
I have a small collection of older full size violins available.
Since 2012 I have been converting, varnishing and setting up 5-string fiddolas by request, and often have one in the shop available to purchase.
I always have a 4/4 Northern Sun Cello in the shop, and sometimes have interesting older cellos available.
About Us
My main shop is located in qathet, and I have a satellite shop in Roberts Creek, on the Sunshine Coast of BC, Canada. I serve the local community from Langdale to Lund, as well as Comox Valley and North Island musicians.
Through the mail, I repair and sell instruments and bows to clients all over Canada.
I support students from Music Makers and the Serena Eades Academy of Music.
I am the luthier in residence for the PRISMA festival.
