We Purchase Instruments

We're always seeking European and American Violin-familyinstruments and their bows for purchase or consignment. (We also purchase mandolins, banjos and guitars)

History of American Violins

Visit our public service pages on the History of New England Violinmakers to learn about the rise of violin making in America. Dameron has collected and researched American violins for many years and recently presented at the Library of Congress regarding the instruments and violin makers of New England.

Museum Showroom

Our showroom "Museum of Sales" is a reference resource for identifying instruments by individual makers and their construction details. Sadly, mis-labeling of instruments has been a problem in the violin sales for centuries. Good reference photos are invaluable for comparison, identification and authentication. We guarantee the authenticity of our instruments.

We are always seeking instruments, photographs, biographical information and business records related to American violin makers (Especially Massachusetts), 1850-1950.
