Juan Soto is amazing!! I got my violin here and it has a beautiful sound! He is patient and very nice. I really appreciate him! I always go to him if I need anything or if I have any questions.
Mr. Soto was very helpful. Although he didnt buy my violin, he gave me some very useful info.
We really enjoyed working with Mr. Soto to get a new Cello for my daughter. He was very kind and patient. Also the instrument sounds wonderful, especially for the price.

I met Mr. Soto on a personal errand. He has been in the business for many, many years. The violins he has are beautiful! He does repairs on stringed instruments. To me, he seemed very knowledgeable about what he does. He is happy to answer questions and is an honest, forthright man.
Fantastic servers from a spectacular specialist.
Soto Violins are absolutely fantastic. Mr. Soto has that professionalism rarely seen in America today. The shop is quaint and has the visual aesthetics of an amazing luthier shop. I had a violin that was very old restored here with amazing attention to detail. His knowledge obvious products and his craft is amazing. I highly recommend this place and no other if you are looking to have any work done on any string instrument especially violins. He has a young man working there that is very nice and helpful. Thanks for all and everything you guys have helped me with this Christmas youve made me a very happy customer
He was so friendly and did a great job analyzing what my violin needed fixed.

The quality of his violins are excellent!My niece is so happy and satisfied with her first violin !This transaction was over the phone and he took the time to type my gift message in a cute and beautiful card! My baby was so happy! I would recommend your shop and services to others! You got a 5+stars!Thank you Mr Soto!
Juan is the best Luthier in town. Period. It is clear that he has the experience and expertise to handle major restorations yet never turns away smaller repairs and maintenance. I am super grateful that i know Juan and that he takes care of all my repair needs. Thank you Juan!
Juan Soto was so kind and knowledgeable. He has so much passion for what he does...so fortunate to have met him.
This shop came highly recommended by both of my music instructors, and the quality and thoroughness of his work definitely proved why. He is very friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, but still fair and reasonable with the pricing. From now on, whenever I have an instrument problem, I will always go to him.
Mr. Soto is an amazing and friendly guy. He repaired my violin fast and at a reasonable price. Will visit again for future repairs!
Mr. Soto is a very amazing luthier and friend. I am very thankful for the amazing, high quality work he does on my instrument, the best in Vegas. He always goes the extra mile with attention and care on your instrument.
Juan is a great person and goes above and beyond to make your instrument sing. I send all of my customers to him for repairs. You can go wrong by going to a Juan!
I would have to agree with all the positive reviews. Juan is very friendly, knowledgeable and reasonably priced. You get the immediate feeling that he really loves what he does and this comes through in his work. His restorations are extremely well done!
Juan has done a number of restorations and repairs for me over the last several years and his work is both impeccable and very reasonably priced.We owned a expensive old French violin that dried out in this desert climate and cracked all the way to the sound post. Before meeting Juan I had a different experienced Luthier do the repair. I showed the violin to Peter Prier in SLC who was interested in selling it. He said that the violin would sell for $12-15,000, however, he couldnt sell it because the repair was done incorrectly and he didnt know anyone that would tackle the job after it had been botched.Juan agreed to fix it and did a masterful job on the repair and was very reasonable on the cost. I was then able to sell the violin.Another great service is that Juan is willing to make adjustments to an instrument while you play it to make sure you get exactly the sound you are looking for. I dont believe any other Las Vegas shop will do this.Juan Soto also has instrument rentals and sales and has some extraordinary violins on hand for sale as well as some fine bows. I trust him completely.
I watched with interest the video about you produced by WWDBTV and was quite disturbed to hear that you re -graduate violins, which you think do not sound good. Different people like different types of sound and they may not agree with your taste. since you mentioned that you learned all you know from Robert Cauer I asked him if that is what he does and teaches.He explained that this is something one should never do on violins, which were made by individual makers. This is only accepted on mass produced violins, which are made by multiple people, none of whom are violin makers. (one person cuts the f holes, one is trained to fit a bass bar, one makes scrolls etc). They may have fancy names of good makers but nevertheless are inexpensive commercial instruments. any repair on violins made by real makers should always reversible. For example if the violin sounds too tubby one can reinforce the top around the edges to make the sound brighter. That can be removed any time and the integrity of the violin was not violated.Robert mentioned that he is sure that you only re-graduate the mass produced ones as you saw them done in his shop where you did excellent retouch and bow work but that explanation was missing in your video.
Juan worked on a Eugene Meinel that I had purchased. Ive been in the industry for sometime now, and must say that Juans work is first rate. Highly recommended!!!
Excellent! Mr. Soto does wonderful work. His prices are fair, hes honest and reasonable.I have dealt with other people in town and he is the best. Always will greet you with a smile.
The repair was nothing less than professional and the price was reasonable.
Excellent work in restoring our +200yr violin!All around wonderful doing business.Juan is an extremely knowledgable luthier with a true passion for his craft. If you have a string instrument needing repair, after you meet, youll know your instrument is in the best hands for the job.
Juan is the best luthier in LV valley.
Extremely good at what he does, and very patient when explaining whats wrong with your instrument, how itll be fixed, and why it needs done. Highly recommended!
Great Luthier. I took my violins to Mr.Soto after other local music shops refused to work on Left-handed violins (properly left handed not a conversion) He had no issue doing so and was roughly half the price of the Family Music stores quote (until they were told my violins were left handed and said no). I had new pegs, tailpieces, and strings replaced to get rid of the poorly made ones that came on my student violin and my inexpensive electric. He also trimmed and adjusted the bridges, all for what other places wanted to charge to do one violin. Dropped them off Friday morning and had them back Monday night! I will always take my business to him for now on. I will likely be back soon with my fathers mandolin and my great great grandfathers guitar.
Mr. Soto repaired my daughters 1/10 cello needed the bridge reshaped. Juan Soto did an excellent repair for a very affordable price.
Awesome and friendly experience.
