Beginnings are critical. That is why we are committed to offering the best student instruments to beginning players.We believe this commitment is why Hoffmann instruments have become so popular with teachers, schools, parents,and beginning students of all ages.

We designed Franz Hoffmann instruments to give you the absolute best student violins, violas, cellos, and basses available on the market today. The consistent quality in materials, construction, playability, tone, and visual appealmake them a great value for every beginning string student.

Working closely with workshops, we have carefully designed and crafted each Franz Hoffmann instrument to ensureour specifications are met. These instruments are then sent to our Ann Arbor workshop to receive final adjustmentsassuring easy playability and polished looks.
