I have no real music training and had students start in the TPS instrumental program and later advancing into a couple of the area youth orchestras.(Violin, Viola and Cello). We started out with no knowledge and a ¾ size violin that I had purchased(elsewhere); and only later did I learn it was only a step above pitiful(but I guess it was a start). With time as the students made progress we upgraded their instruments and somewhere along the way we found Jacob and Tulsa Strings. He has checked over, set-up and made needed repairs to all of our stringed instruments. This includes repairing loose seams, cracks, scratches, sound post adjustments and even a cracked neck. I have been very happy with all of my experiences at Tulsa Strings and recommend any parent who has a student in a strings program to go here first. You will save time, probably find good value in an instrument(over a wide budget range) and be done. It is about as simple as that. Having or helping a student learn a stringed instruments does cost some money, but having done all of it and now looking back it was one of the more rewarding things I did for my children.

Great place. Jacob is fast and well trained. This is where I take my instruments and where I send my students.

I travel through Tulsa fairly regularly in my profession as a classical violinist. Sometimes I need new strings or an adjustment or I’ve lost another mute or my bow needs rehaired or I just want to try a new chin rest I’ve seen online. A friend of mine recommended I stop by and see Jacob so I did. And boy was I glad I did. He’s very knowledgeable about everything. Any question I throw at him he can not only answer, but explain in detail; how it used to be done and how it’s done now or other ways it could be done and well, you get the idea. You’ll get a great deal here on whatever you need. The shop has all the necessary items and if you need any repairs, Jacob’s your man. You can also rent instruments there and Jacob can give you good teacher recommendations.
