We went to Stamell to shop for violins for my children. Stephen was so patient and courteous. He measured my children and let them try out different sizes of violin. He answered my questions patiently and even played different violins to show the differences for my children. Because we had such a pleasant experience with Stephen, I decided to go back for my violin needs even though they are much further than other places.

I brought in my double bass for repairs, and I couldnt be any happier. Everyone was very courteous. They worked with me to stay inside my budget. Then went above and beyond. It sounds and plays better than it ever has. Whats most impressive is the attention to detail on top of the already great craftsmanship. They really made sure every last detail was covered. I took it home and practiced for hours. And as I played, I got more and more blown away by what a great job they did. I will definitely be trusting them in the future for my instrument inspections and repairs.

I’ve been playing cello for 7 months and desperately needed new strings but didn’t know how to put them on, the guys in the shop were absolutely incredible! They chatted with me about the different types of strings and put on the new set. Additionally, they looked at my cello for me to make sure that it was set upproperly and even played it for me so I could hear what it sounded like with a more advanced player. Overall, it was an amazing experience and extremely informative! I highly recommend them!!!

Went looking for a mandolin. When I wandered into this store, it was clear that they mainly focused on violins, violas, cellos and basses. However, the two people working in the store were very friendly and helpful. They made some suggestions on where to buy a mandolin, even suggesting that their luthier could make me one. (That was out of my price range, but a thoughtful suggestion).It turns out that they also carry Ukuleles. I bought one for my daughter that is engraved with elephants. It plays well and she enjoys it.

Quality service from exceptionally personable staff. The intimate atmosphere of this small shop is quite comfortable.

Troy and Stephen were very friendly and fixed a crack in my violin for a very reasonable price. It looks great now, very happy with it. Thanks.

We are renting a violin for my daughter through Stamell. They were very helpful and offered a competitive monthly rate. I have recommended Stamell to friends.

I have brought two different violins in there to be repaired. Both times I was more than pleased, and completely impressed. They are very professional & friendly; excellent workmanship!!

Wonderful, knowledgeable staff. Thank you for making this purchase process smooth.

High quality experience at an afordable price. They fixed my sound post in my violin in a matter of minutes with an appointment. Only about 15 dollars too. Definitely worth the trip to Poughkeepsie and the price of the actual job. Highly recommended for string players.

Had a new complete set of violin strings replaced and making plans on getting a bow by weeks end. They have everything needed to make your instrument play.

Good place for instruments rentals, I used to rented a half size cello for my son for 6 months.

Professional people. Great space.

Great Selection

Good service

Very professional
