Introducing a safe and convenient way to ship your bow for a rehair!
Introducing the new Givens Violins bow shipping box. A safe and convenient way to ship your bow for a rehair! We have custom crafted our new bow box to allow for ease of use and protection of the bows. Givens Violins has a full service repair shop which is staffed by five professionally trained and experienced violin makers and includes a full-time bow specialist.
We understand that as string players, convenience can play a big role in how well you maintain your bow. This is why Claire Givens Violins is excited to introduce our new bow box, which allows you to have top-quality bow service from wherever you live. Each box includes instructions for packing and is designed to ship up to two bows at a time – no bow case necessary. The tried and tested design ensures complete protection for your bows in transit. The bow box is a wonderful investment for teachers, students away at college, music department offices or any musician that doesn’t have local access to a bow restorer.
Once we receive your bow, we will examine it and rehair your bow. When your rehair is complete, we will make arrangements to ship your bow back to you. The cost of rehairs is $79 per violin, viola or cello bow plus tax and shipping. You can, of course, request other bow services as well. Generally, we ship all our bows using UPS Ground with signature required. The cost of shipping will be determined by your shipping address and any additional insurance coverage you request. We prefer using UPS for their reliable tracking, safe handling, and on-time delivery. Other shipping options are available when you schedule your rehair and we are happy to arrange any shipping method you prefer.
