Without trying to sound overly dramatic, you just *need* to get your fiddle over to Karins if you reside in the northern NJ area.

What a great, great personality and has a luthiers touch with violins that can't be beat.

OK, I can now oficially say that Karin Menzels' shop is *MY* violin repair and purchase shop of choice!

She's so patient and did a great, great job adjusting my violin.

Run, don't walk, to her storefront in Boonton, NJ.

Just had my first exposure to Ms. Menzel yesterday. She is an astoundingly nice and humorous person!!!

My instrument is in with her as I write this so perhaps after I pick it up on Tuesday and bear witness to her work, I can write further.

What a sweetheart she is!!

Karen is one of the finest people you could deal with. Not to mention she rehairs a bow better than anyone that has ever touched mine.
Friendly no rush service at it's best.

Karin is a good friend of mine, and the daughter of Richard Menzel, who ran NJ's most respected violin shop for 30 years. She worked with her father for many of those years, and has her own shop now. She's a violinist as well and has a great reputation with her customers.
