Tony Aparichio Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 On a recent trip through Chiang Mai we looked around the Arcade bus station for a stringed instriment shop that was there a year ago. It was nowhere to be found. It had a reasonable selection of violins, violas, cellos, standup basses, and of course all the accessories to go along with them. Bows, loose bow hair bridges tailpieces, the whole works for repair & replacement. If anyone knows where they went We would be grateful for the information. Info on any other well equiped stringed instriment shop with repair facilities & or parts would also be useful. Thanks in advance Bad Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieM Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I can't help you much but when I had similar problems I went to a guitar shop and asked those guys. They were able to help me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigt3365 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Be careful with some of the cheap instruments made here. They don't stay in tune, are hard to play and some don't sound great. My friend bought a cheap banjo. Impossible to get it in tune and the action was so high you could fly a helicopter in there! When playing it, you could almost see the tuner knobs moving. They just didn't hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mousehound Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Chiang Mai University has an orchestra so you should be able to find out what you need if you can contact them - I would contact the Department for the Arts and see if you can find a tutor to speak to.
