About us
Our History
Viool-kopen.nl was founded on the same passion that forms the foundation of VDS Instruments : a love of music and craftsmanship. What began as a quest for high-quality violins for musicians of all levels quickly evolved into a specialized webshop where quality, service, and personal advice are paramount.
Since our inception, we have had one goal: to make high-quality violins and accessories accessible to everyone who wants to discover the beauty of string music – from beginners to advanced players.
More than a Webshop
At Viool-kopen.nl, it's not just about selling instruments. We believe that choosing a violin is a personal choice and that every instrument has its own unique character. That's why we're happy to help you find the violin that truly suits you – with honest information, expert advice, and a listening ear for your needs.
Our webshop is clearly structured, making it easy to choose between different sizes, wood types, and price ranges. From student models for children to handmade violins for advanced players – you'll find it all here.
Personal Advice and Service
Whether you're unsure about the right size, looking for a perfectly balanced bow, or want to learn more about rosin or strings, we're here to help. You can always contact us for advice, and of course, you're also welcome to visit our store to experience the instruments in person.
Our Range
We offer a carefully selected range of trusted brands and accessories, including Scott Cao, Leonardo, Scarlatti, Thomastik Infeld and more!
