Serving All Levels Of Players 

The SHAR Connection 

A Global Network 

SHAR’s purchasing agents are string players, and they 

travel the globe to work directly with our partner 

workshops. For nearly 50 years we have established 

longstanding relationships with the world’s leading 

makers and workshops in America, Europe, and Asia. 

From the wood selection to the acoustic models 

used, from the neck shapes to the various varnish 

properties, our purchasing agents work with our 

partners to ensure that every detail is crafted to our 

specifications. Our world-wide logistics network also 

guarantees that our instruments and bows arrive here 

in Ann Arbor in ideal, safe condition. 

The SHAR Setup 

Where Millimeters Count 

SHAR’s own Setup Shop, Restoration and Repair 

department, staffed by experienced luthiers and 

technicians, ensures each instrument is in healthy, 

stable condition and adjusted for optimal tonal 

response. Shar adheres to stringent quality standards 

and we stand by the construction, setup and sound 

of all our instruments and bows. 

Whether you’re picking up a Shar instrument for the 

first time, or have been playing it for years, it should 

sound beautiful to your ears and feel wonderful in your 

hands. Great tone and easy playability are the primary 

goals of the Shar Setup Shop. 

Using century-old methods, traditional hand tools, and 

time-saving technology, our select group of technicians 

work to very precise measurements, usually within 

tolerances of a tenth of a millimeter. 

String heights, neck shapes, soundpost and bridge 

curvatures are among the hundreds of things we 

address in the Shar Setup Shop for one simple reason: 

to make players happy. 

SHAR Repair & 

Restoration Shop 

Like a fine wine, well-made instruments only improve 

with age. But they must be properly setup, cared for 

and maintained to keep up with the rigorous demands 

of the serious musician. The Shar Repair & Restoration 

Shop services instruments and bows from our local 

and national customers, as well as those from our Fine 

Instrument Collection, and we confidently rely on 

their expertise.

How can I tell the quality of my student violin? 

Of course, a violin must sound good in order to 

motivate your young student. But a high quality 

instrument must also have easy-turning pegs that stay 

in tune. The bridge, fingerboard, nut and soundpost 

must be carefully shaped and fit so that the violin is 

easy to play and feels good to the hand. 

What makes one violin more expensive than 

another? The two biggest factors are the quality and 

age of the wood and the skill of the makers. Only a 

skilled maker is able to make all the parts fit together 

properly so the violin will work perfectly. 

What size violin does my child need? That is best 

answered by the child’s teacher. The musicians who 

answer the phone at SHAR are well qualified to make 

a recommendation based on your child’s age and arm 

length, but there’s no substitute for having a good 

teacher who can see them holding the instrument. 

Our 30 day guarantee assures you that returns and 

exchanges will be quick and easy. 

Why does it matter where I get an instrument? 

There are so many places offering “great deals” on 

student violins these days that it can be overwhelming. 

You need to be sure that your instrument will be 

playable, and that the staff can answer your questions 

so that you select an appropriate instrument that is 

right for your child’s level of playing. Many parents 

call SHAR because they are frustrated at the poor 

quality of a violin they purchased on an internet 

auction or discount instrument site.

Breaking the rules. 

Saving you money. 

Again. 

While a student at the Curtis Institute almost 50 years ago, I began selling 

strings at a discount to the Philadelphia Orchestra. This then unheard of 

discount practice expanded to bringing value to SHAR’S national market. 

Over the years SHAR has had many other firsts all intended to save our 

customers money while providing the best quality and service. Most recently, 

our introduction of the Presto line of carbon fiber bows represented another 

breakthrough in performance and value. Now, and with great satisfaction, 

I have another major announcement to make. 

SHAR is taking the lead, again. But, this time in offering a fine violin for advanced 

High School and College players. For years, violinists were required to spend around 

$10,000 for a quality European instrument that met the entry level standard for players 

at this level. We have been working with the best Chinese makers for years to develop 

instruments that would meet the needs of these players but at a more affordable price. 

The John Cheng violin will delight you with its sound, quality and appearance. It’s range of tone color and power is what you are looking for 

– all at a price that is within a person’s budget. 

I am proud to say that our new John Cheng line has achieved our goals of providing an affordable instrument that meets these performance 

needs. But don’t just take my word for it – try one with our In-Home Trial program, play it against a $10,000 instrument and judge 

for yourself. 

- Charles Avsharian, SHAR CEO 

“The emergence of high quality Chinese instruments, such as the John Cheng line at SHAR Products, 

has forever changed the music industry. In the past, it was necessary for my students to purchase 

instruments in excess of 15K in order to compete at the collegiate level. However, parents can now 

breathe a sigh of relief, as it is no longer necessary to spend such money to provide the tools necessary 

to advance their child’s professional dream. A $3000 Chinese fiddle is now capable of competing on 

the collegiate level and frequently supersedes all expectations. For this reason, it is my prediction that 

the market for such instruments will significantly increase over the next 5 years and these instruments 

will become commonplace in major universities across the country.” 

- Stephen Shipps, Professor of Violin, University of Michigan

When Shar CEO and noted teacher Charles Avsharian 

created the first Carlo Lamberti violin over a decade 

ago, he started with one goal in mind: to create the very 

best violin for the intermediate to advancing student, 

at a great price. Working tirelessly with a world-class 

Chinese atelier to make his goal a reality, the Carlo 

Lamberti emerged and was quickly accepted by teachers 

and players everywhere. In 

fact, no less an authority than 

beloved violin virtuoso Pinchas 

Zukerman had this say: “I think 

the Lamberti violin is very 

well-made, has a very healthy 

projection, for any student it 

would be a worthwhile purchase.” 

Carlo Lamberti ® Symphony 

A musical and aesthetic delight: Take the next step toward 

the symphony.

SHAR’S experienced players created the Lamberti Symphony for the 

student who demands high performance, quality wood selection and 

excellent workmanship. As teachers know, motivating the advancing 

student to break through to their next level is of prime importance. The 

Lamberti Symphony is both a musical and an aesthetic delight, possessing 

a full, balanced and complex tone in a delicately antiqued package.

A note to teachers: 

How many times have you taught a student who shows 

extraordinary ability at a very young age? Perhaps she 

started at age three and now she is six, working in 

Suzuki book seven. The problem is that she’s ready for 

a 1/4 size violin, but needs an advanced model. 

The Lamberti Sonata was designed with such students 

in mind. This violin will allow your advancing small 

student to make rapid progress with tone development 

and fast passages. Its powerful and rich tone will delight 

and surprise a deserving student, especially one who has 

grown used to the limitations of their present violin.

This is the best $500 violin you will find anywhere! In fact, if you find

Developed by Charles Avsharian, SHAR CEO, our original Carlo 

Lamberti violin is a popular choice among advancing players and their

exceptional violins. And in the spirit of the Carlo Lamberti series, we’ve 

refined the setup and crafted the violin with beautiful Italian top wood, 

for an even more focused and burnished tone, 4/4 – 3/4 sizes.

Amazing Violin! 

This is amazing! The projection is great, and has a perfect 

degree of “forgiveness”. The pitch last’s a ridiculously long 

time and sounds great. You can tell when this violin is in tune 

because you will hear it “click”. When I showed this violin to 

my private teacher she estimated its cost upwards of $3000!! 

Definitely a great value!

German Craftsmanship. American Attitude. 

KJS10 $1,500 

Our all-new Karl Joseph Schneider Stradivari is made especially for Shar by 

our partner workshop in Germany. Fine craftsmanship, aged tonewoods, 

lightly-antiqued but traditional varnish and close attention to detail make the 

Schneider Stradivari unmistakably German. But we wanted a more aggressive 

sound, dark but with focus, projection and articulation, for the creative violinist 

who often plays a wide variety of musical styles. The moment you draw your bow 

across the strings, you’ll see immediately that the Schneider Stradivari delivers on 

this promise. 4/4 size.

Excellent value!!! 

I have purchased two of these instruments this year, one for each 

of my daughters. They play both classical and fiddle and have 

been playing for almost 5 years. Their teachers are very pleased 

with the quality and sound of these violins and have remarked 

several times what a good value they are at under $1000. We 

feel we would have to spend more than twice this much to get a 

better instrument.

In the 1930’s, Lionel Tertis, one of the most influential violists of the 20th century,

to navigate by smaller or younger players. The result is a viola with a small upper 

bout for maneuverability and a large lower bout for big sound. Our Lamberti Tertis 

viola is based on Tertis’ design. It is beautifully crafted from choice tonewoods and

Franz Hoffmann ® instruments represent what we feel are the absolute best student instrument values 

available in terms of consistent quality in materials, construction, playability, tone and visual appeal. We work directly 

with workshops to design and craft these instruments which then receive final adjustments in our Ann Arbor workshop to 

assure that each Hoffmann violin plays and looks its best. Beginnings are important, and we are committed to offering the 

best student instruments to beginning players to fit any budget. We believe this commitment is why Hoffmann instruments 

have become so popular with teachers, schools, and parents.

You might ask: 

Why 

Franz Hoffmann? 

Because of the people that 

make them so! People like 

Bruce, who has performed 

expert setup at SHAR for over 

15 years; people like Anna, 

SHAR’S operations manager 

in Beijing, who assures that 

only top-quality instruments 

are delivered to SHAR’S Ann 

Arbor headquarters; people 

like Eva, who carefully craft 

each bridge by hand in our 

European partner workshop; 

people like Larisa, who play 

and adjust every instrument 

in Ann Arbor before it can be 

accepted as a Franz Hoffmann. 

It’s SHAR’S ongoing promise. 

There’s simply no other way to 

make a Franz Hoffmann.

On behalf of teachers, violin shops and beginning players across the country, we encourage parents 

to avoid the temptations to buy cheap internet-auction violin outfits, commonly known as V.S.O. 

- Violin Shaped Objects. These instruments look like violins, but very high percentages are virtually 

unplayable due to innumerable structural and set-up problems. Many well-meaning parents bring 

their V.S.O’s to violin shops and are disappointed to find out that the repairs needed to make their 

instrument playable far exceed both the price they paid for the instrument and the price of a properly 

made and set up instrument without any of the problems of a V.S.O.

The Amadeus violin outfit has everything the beginning musician needs 

to start off on the right foot! There’s no need to settle for a poorly made, 

hard-to-play “VSO” (violin shaped object) when you can get Franz 

Hoffmann quality at such a great price. 

As any teacher will tell you, a violin for a beginning student must function flawlessly 

and play with ease, producing a pleasant sound. Our mission was to create the 

perfect violin that would delight beginning players, parents and teachers, while 

keeping to SHAR’S guiding principle of providing the best value to the string 

community. The Amadeus is just that, and has gone through a three step quality 

inspection process before you receive it. 

How did we do it? In a word – Quality. Visually appealing, the Amadeus is made 

of quality maple, spruce and ebony. The hand feel is very smooth, and the sound is 

enhanced by Overture premium strings and Carbon Fiber tailpiece with 4 built-in 

fine tuners. The bridge is accurately carved, and the pegs turn smoothly. The outfit 

includes a shaped foam case, rosin and brazilwood/horsehair bow. Available in 4/4 to 

1/16 sizes.

Nothing excites and inspires a budding musician like an instrument that looks,

Enhanced arching gives a warmer and more powerful sound; careful varnish 

application gives a clean and precise look that brings out the beauty of the wood; 

better quality pegs allow your young student to master the intricacies of tuning. In 

every way, our Prelude will exceed your expectations for a beginner’s instrument -- it 

will delight both parents and teachers and inspire your young student. Set-up with 

Overture premium strings. Outfit includes KVB Brazilwood bow, rosin and TC66

Franz Hoffmann ® Etude 

When a student has a talent that begs to be shared with others, they need 

a violin with a big, bold sound. The Etude’s beautifully applied spirit varnish 

enhances the instrument’s tone and ensures they won’t get lost in the crowd! 

Our Etude has long been a popular choice with parents and teachers willing to spend 

a bit more for a warmer sound. Made by hand, finished with a spirit varnish to bring 

out even more of the sound, and set-up with Overture Ultra strings. This level of 

craftsmanship is not found on any other student violin in this price range. 

A solid spruce top, inlaid purfling, solid maple sides & neck, and ebony fittings all 

combine to make this an excellent student instrument. Available in 4/4 to 1/16 sizes.

Great musicianship requires passion and commitment. A student with these 

qualities needs a violin that can keep up with them as their skills rapidly

Let’s face it, you can easily find a beginner or 

student violin on the web... e-commerce and open 

borders have expanded choices and pushed down 

prices. But the old adage, “let the buyer beware” 

has become more important than ever. It seems 

everyone sells an “Etude” or a “Maestro” 

violin. How can you keep it straight and 

get the best instrument? The answer 

is simple: Insist on a Franz 

Hoffmann instrument.

A powerful, soaring sound will impress audiences,

see page 26 

For years, teachers and schools have trusted Franz Hoffmann instruments to help 

bring out the best performances in their students. Consistent quality, playability, 

visual appeal and value have been the hallmarks of the Franz Hoffmann series. The 

new and exciting Hoffmann Concert violin continues this tradition with a beautiful, 

hand-carved and hand spirit-varnished violin. 

Our goal with the Hoffmann Concert was to produce a violin with a powerful, 

soaring sound and inspired good looks! We worked closely with our partner 

workshop in China and our expectations were high. Then, we field tested hundreds 

of Concert violins with our most demanding customers: schools and students! 

The result was nearly unanimous acclaim . . . and multiple school reorders!

Amadeus 

Available in 4/4, 3/4, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/10 

The Amadeus is hand-made from quality maple, 

spruce and ebony. Unlike many cellos in this price 

range, the Amadeus is carved from solid wood, not 

laminated. The reason we insisted upon this is simple: 

A carved, solid wood cello sounds far better than any 

laminated on the market today, at any price. Of 

course, we didn’t stop there – teachers will appreciate 

the lovely hand-feel, usually found only on expensive 

cellos. The bridge and soundpost are expertly fitted 

for optimum sound quality. The ebony pegs turn 

smoothly. Responsive steel core strings work perfectly 

with the fine carbon-fiber tailpiece with four built-in 

string adjusters. Finished in a durable and attractive 

red-brown nitro varnish. Made in China, play tested 

and adjusted in our Ann Arbor workshop.

the sound to blossom. Careful attention to the ebony 

fingerboard allows your young student to advance 

quickly, without fighting poor setup. Smoothly 

functioning ebony pegs, perfectly-fitted bridge and 

post and final test playing and adjustment at our 

Ann Arbor workshop ensures that the Prelude will

4/4 925 

Arguably among the two or three greatest bow makers 

in history, Peccatte’s bows are known for their great 

strength, tremendous power, warmth of sound and 

versatility. Peccatte was an innovator; heads designed 

by Peccatte have been called “hatchet-shaped” and 

have been copied by generations of bowmakers. Our 

Peccatte model, from the Guy Laurent workshop, is 

suitable for a strong player who desires layers of sound 

and powerful projection.

In the tradition of the great French archetiers, we are proud to offer these impressive 

bows of fine character and outstanding playability. For the player seeking a strong 

bow with very warm sound, excellent control and fast response, but without breaking 

the bank, look no further! Easily comparable to European bows costing twice the 

price, these master-made bows are the finest Chinese-made bows we have yet found. 

Our bow expert and master restorer, David Crowder, has said “these bows have 

excellent quality wood and are crafted to very high standards. The shape of the heads 

is refined, the fittings are installed with care and the sticks are strong.”

Designed with the help of a composite process engineer,

production facility, these superlative models represent the 

latest in bow technology. 

These bows offer exceptional performance, are highly 

responsive and project a most powerful, clear, rich warm 

tone. Unlike standard composite bows, which are hollow, 

these bows have a solid core to give them a supple, even 

feel and balance. The carbon fibers used to make this 

bow are woven into a continuous pattern. This creates a 

seamless bow that carries its fiber patterns down its entire 

length just as the grain of a wood bow is carried down its 

entire length. Nickel-mounted, deluxe ebony frog.

“The Shar Fusion allows me to express all the passion and intensity that Article One’s music demands, with out wilting or

plays like a good wood bow. It’s ideal for demanding music-making.”

SHAR FUSION Bows 

Performance and Durability! 

For years string teachers have told us that fiberglass 

bows are a durable and practical choice for active young 

students and their budget-conscious parents. But because 

they lack the finesse and handling properties of wood or 

carbon fiber bows, teaching bowing techniques can be 

difficult. We listened to our colleagues and set out to find 

a solution. The result is the SHAR FUSION student bow. 

Utilizing a high tech composite of carbon fiber and 

fiberglass, the SHAR FUSION is strong and priced right. 

But best of all, the SHAR FUSION performs like much 

more expensive wood or carbon fiber bows. Try one today!

About Carbon Fiber Bows… 

Despite common misconceptions, all carbon fiber bows 

are not created equal! 

Quality carbon fiber bows do not come off an assembly 

line, each one exactly like the last! As with fine wood 

bows, carbon fiber bows require tremendous amounts of 

skilled hand work. Each stick is carefully fashioned and 

finished by hand, a time consuming process. Every bow 

maker that heads a carbon fiber workshop has their own 

philosophy of how a bow should sound and perform. 

Some believe that carbon fiber bows should emulate all 

technical aspects of wood bows, others believe that 

carbon fiber has its own characteristics that should be 

used on its own merits. The result is that there is an 

amazing variety of carbon fiber bows at all playing levels 

and for all budgets. We believe that the PRESTO line 

of carbon fiber bows represent the highest quality and 

best value you will find today –and all are backed by 

SHAR’s full warrantee and satisfaction guarantee.

Violin Outfit 

From the cool “Ram’s Head” scroll to the great 

colors, this is an exciting instrument. Improved 

electronics allow the tone to blossom, sounding more 

like an acoustic instrument, worthy of live performance 

as well as a valuable practice tool for situations that 

require quiet. Great setup makes for smooth playability. 

The traditional violin contours are uniquely defined 

by an attached high density plastic frame, which unlike 

many other electric violins available, allows you to use 

any desired shoulder rest. For the traditional acoustic 

violinist, this design makes the transition from an 

acoustic to electric nearly seamless. 

The real change for the player is actually the fun 

part, and that includes using the instrument’s versatile 

electronic features that include a 1/8” auxiliary input 

(for CD or mini-disc player so that you can practice 

with your Play-a-Long method CDs), 1/8” headphone 

jack, professional 1/4” line out (to amplifier) and 

volume control. The built-in preamp features two 

different audio settings. 4 fine tuners (5 tuners on 

5-string model), natural ebony pegs, chinrest and 

fingerboard. Included is a Brazilwood bow (KVB), 

case, instrument cable, mini rosin, earbud headphones 

and 9 volt battery (required for preamp). Ebony Black,

I play a lot of gigs. Weddings, Celtic festivals, 

pubs, even a few just for friends and family. 

These experiences have taught me a lot about 

playing, but I’ve also learned a great deal 

about sound and the limitations of an acoustic 

instrument. I’ve found that even if I adore the 

tone of my acoustic violin, in many situations 

it’s simply not loud enough. Whether you’re 

playing outdoors or in a noisy pub, electrifying 

your instrument is a fantastic way to be heard 

above the crowd.

NS DESIGN 

A professional electric string player has plenty to worry about while 

performing on stage before an audience. Can you really afford to be 

bothered by on-the-fly tonal adjustments, electronic controls that are 

impossible to access while playing, slipping pegs, or shifting bridges? 

You’ll know everything is perfect when you pick up an NS Design 

instrument, so stop worrying about where in the heck that EQ dial is 

and focus on your playing! 

The rapid growth in the popularity of these instruments necessitated 

the introduction of more affordable models that offer subtle variations on 

the same great design. The WAV series feature passive electronics and high 

gloss finishes. The NXT instruments feature passive electronics and a matte 

finish. WAV and NXT models are an appealing option for players on a 

more limited budget. 

Make things easy for yourself and try an NS Design.

NS Design Electric 

Cello CR Series 

NSC4 $ 2,500 


Instruments that allow you to focus on the 

music - NOT on tweaking the equipment! 

NS Design’s CR Series instruments have enjoyed enormous popularity 

over the years because they do what they’re supposed to do: let you play. 

Once you have breathed your huge sigh of relief after holding these 

comfortable well-balanced instruments for the first time, you can discover 

for yourself one of the most flexible pickup-preamp systems available for 

electric bowed-strings (an area with limited options for onboard tone 

control). The Polar pickup system is designed to capture both arco and 

pizzicato string vibrations and provides unparalleled response, control, 

and richness of tone. The active electronics (built-in dual-mode preamp 

requires 9V battery) offer greater flexibility in sculpting your sound, and 

the volume, treble EQ, bass EQ, and 3-way toggle switch are easily 

accessible on the treble side of the instrument. EQ dials have a zero stop 

so you don’t have to drop what your doing just to find the right position. 

The recessed bridge sits in a narrow slot on the top making it impossible 

to shift around. Precision tuning hardware (on the violin - cellos and 

basses have machine tuners) eliminates the extra slack behind the nut 

ensuring that the instrument will stay in tune. The actual tuning knobs 

are located at the “tailpiece” end, making on-the-fly tuning much easier. 

NS Design’s functionality is unprecedented. You can tune your E-string, 

cut your volume, or boost your bass frequencies without even letting go of 

your bow. All of this in a beautiful solid maple body and flame maple top 

with a polyurethane finish: a modern design with traditional ebony and 

maple materials.

The Realist Pickup 

by David Gage & NS Design 

The Realist rests between the bridge feet and the violin 

top, which puts it exactly where the sound is transferred 

from the strings to the sound board. The result is 

rich, powerful response, both pizzicato and bowed. 

Its mounting hardware is extremely compact and 

with such a high output gain it requires no external 

preamp. The copper foil sandwich construction 

provides total shielding to eliminate hum from light 

fixtures and other electrical or radio interference.

the average accompanist must leave out some

Today, more than at any time in the recent past, musicians

top of your game and to stay there. With sections on Artful

Gregor Pitigorsky 

The Life and Career of the Virtuoso Cellist 

Terry King 

Terry King was a student of Gregor Piatigorsky. This 

exhaustively researched book relies on King’s own experiences. 

as a student of Pitogorsky, family records and Piatigorsky’s 

autobiography, Cellist, to tell the story of his life in its full 

richness. Piatigorsky’s career began as that of an archetypal 

struggling artist. He scraped up lessons as he could, and 

using secondhand and borrowed instruments earned a meager 

living after being thrown out of his Moscow home at the age 

of 12. In time, his skill and mastery of the cello allowed him 

to emerge as solo cellist with the Berlin Philharmonic. He 

continued a brilliant career in the US that cemented his 

place as one of the twentieth century’s greatest musicians.

MARK O’CONNOR’S CALL TO ACTION 

Excerpted from A Reemerging American Classical Music, by Mark O’Connor 

Read the entire work on-line: www.sharmusic.com/markoconnor 

“I . . . have no quarrel with masterpieces from Europe, but we are not Europe’s musical colony. Our own musical resources are too vast 

and too rich for so many serious American composers to continue to reject. 

“Allow me, then, to describe my solution to our identity problem: Conservatory instructors and other music educators nationwide must 

incorporate traditional American musical styles into their curricula. Furthermore, composers must themselves be musicians well versed in 

the styles upon which they wish to base their music. The musical materials they harness must flow not only through their ears but also 

through their veins. 

“The violin – or fiddle, if you prefer – bridges the gap between traditional American music and classical music, for it is the most prevalent 

instrument in both domains. Only by becoming familiar with this instrument and delving into America’s artistic traditions will our composers 

usher in a cohesive style of American classical music.” 

 

 

 

 

His method introduces us to the value in teaching American music, 

and invites students to join the long tradition of improvisational styles 

in the United States. Not only do students learn how to play the violin 

methodically and skillfully, but they are invited to have a personal voice 

– a way to express themselves beyond the notes on the page. While we will 

never dismiss the mastery and beauty of Bach, Beethoven and Mozart, we 

are learning to embrace our own, unbelievably rich musical heritage.

The O’Connor Method employs 

classic violin technique and theory to 

teach students to become skilled violinists. 

But more than that, the O’Connor 

Method uses familiar traditional American 

music to engage and motivate the young 

student. The lavishly illustrated books 

focus on well known traditional American 

tunes such as Oh! Susanna, Amazing 

Grace, Appalachia Waltz and Soldier’s 

Joy. The method seeks to instill a deep 

appreciation of America’s musical history 

with background stories of all those 

that contributed to this rich heritage: 

Immigrants, African-American slaves, 

soldiers – all of whom together created 

what has become the new American 

Classical Music. A unique feature 

of this method is that through 

the progressive development of 

initially simple works, O’Connor 

demonstrates that there is more than 

one way to play a piece, adding an 

‘improvisational’ twist not found 

in other methods. The goal of the 

O’Connor Method is that young 

people everywhere will fall in love 

with playing music. Currently 

volumes 1 and 2 of this 10 volume 

series are available. Included with 

each volume are CDs with Mark 

O’Connor playing all the tunes, 

plus piano accompaniment tracks. 

If you teach viola or cello, discover why the O’Connor Method has taken the violin teaching world by storm! Carefully adapted for 

the unique technical demands for the violist and cellist, the O’Connor Method continues on the path toward allowing each student to 

thoroughly prepare herself for the dynamic world of string performance AND fall in love with playing!

The Shortest Path To 

Winning an Audition! 

Are Sevcik’s famous studies a key ingredient toward mastering a difficult 

work? Yes, as so many top players and teachers will tell you. Are they 

tedious and repetitious, or worse, leading to discouragement and robotic 

playing? Many will say so. 

Why the difference of opinion? It comes down to how Sevcik’s studies 

are used in practice. Simply put, under the right guidance, Sevcik 

studies offer perhaps the fastest path to success. Now, you can re-discover 

the effectiveness of Sevcik applied directly to two great works in the 

repertoire by Sevcik himself: The Mendelssohn Concerto and Wieniawski’s 

Scherzo-Tarantelle. Published for the first time in 75 years, these works 

have been updated and edited for today’s generation of players and teachers

Audition Mastery Guide 

by Adam Crane 

From the award-winning creator of “Niff T. Shift’s Agility Training 

Guide”, a practical, no-nonsense method that will help you snag your 

next audition! 

The audition process can “make or break” a musician. When undertaking 

preparation for an audition too often musicians find themselves in a panic. In 

reality, one does not need to become frustrated or stressed out, in order to 

improve. With intelligent structured, and organized preparation, an 

intelligent game plan will serve to insure comfort and confidence at an 

audition. Professional violinist and skilled teacher Adam Crane helps you 

reinvent your attitude about the audition process so you can make each 

audition experience a learning step that will hone your skills. The Audition Mastery Guide was originally 

developed for an “All-State” audition preparation workshop, where each of the 18 participants progressed to 

the final round and went on to gain acceptance into the orchestra. 30 pages, spiral bound.

Liebenzeller Rosin 

Liebenzeller metal rosin, the rosin that breathes! 

Liebenzeller metal rosin has been made in a small village in the German Black 

Forest for over 40 years. The unique recipe was developed in the workshop of the 

Viennese violin maker Dr. Thomastik as early as 1922. Made traditionally by hand, 

Liebenzeller rosin contains delicate bubbles which emphasize the special quality and 

spirited nature of the rosin. Using pure larch resin with the addition of different 

metals produces livelier, warmer and brighter sounds than other rosins. This will 

help produce enhanced tonal volume, greater modulation and carrying power, 

conveying the individual sound of the instrument without effort, and one-sided 

tones can be compensated. The bow develops an excellent and even response, with 

ambient noise minimized. 

Choosing the right rosin is critical as it is the rosin that creates the sound while 

playing. Liebenzeller rosin enhances a string instrument’s sound as well as the 

player’s creativity with as little effort as possible. We are proud to reintroduce 

Liebenzeller rosin to the United States after an extended period when it was 

unavailable here. 

Liebenzeller rosin is available with 

Gold, Silver, Copper or Meteor 

Iron added for a range of 

unique sounds. 

GOLD 

Uniquely balanced; the sound is 

full, round and warm as well as 

bright and crisp, transparent and 

light in high notes. 

Grades from I (hard) to VI (soft): the softer grades 

make the harshness of an instrument milder and 

enhance it, the harder grades provide more clarity. 

LG1 Gold I: uniquely balanced, more distinct (violin) 

LG2 Gold II: uniquely balanced, a bit mellower (violin, viola) 

LG4 Gold IV: uniquely balanced, a bit mellower (cello) 

LG6H Gold VI H: full, round, warm, honey extract gives 

a silky smooth touch (bass) 

SILBER - SILVER 

Generates a mellow warm sound, especially in the high notes. Makes 

fine nuances possible, and the bow glides flexibly even in pianissimo. 

LS1 Silber I: Mellow and warm, more distinct (violin) 

LS2 Silber II: Mellow and warm, a bit softer (violin/viola) 

NEW! 

KUPFER - COPPER 

Warm and brilliant; easy, flexible play and string resonance, 

with a substantial and clear tone. Good creativity - from the

A Few Words About Rosin 

from Charles Avsharian, SHAR CEO 

When I begin applying rosin, I tend to apply a bit 

more at the tip than at the frog and mid-section. 

Then, I will test the bow on all strings while the 

rosin application may still be on the light side. 

This testing is with long, sustained strokes as well 

as spiccato, martelé and chord playing. If needed, 

I will apply more to the appropriate places. 

Finally, I’ll lightly wipe the hair with a cloth so as 

to remove the loosest particles and smooth things 

out a bit. 

As a general rule, I am partial to playing with less 

rosin than more. There are numerous disadvantages 

in having too thick a layer on your bow hair. 

I use synthetic core A-D-G and a steel E, as do 

most violin and viola players these days. I have 

been very pleased with Bernardel over the years. 

However, there are most certainly other worthy 

brands in our catalog, and I recommend testing 

them. Try to remove as much of your old rosin as 

you can before applying the new brand.

What should 

I look 

for in a mute? 

A good and practical 

question. Humorously, my 

soloist friends get a rather 

puzzled look on their faces 

when asked about mutes 

since their life’s mission 

seems to be shattering 

crystal with their playing! 

All string players should 

have at least one mute,

this adorable mute that will put a smile on anyone’s

professionals. Fairly stiff to start, softens over time.

“I heartily endorse this mute for any performer 

that has respect for his own work.” - Isaac Stern 

1320 $ 10.99 

and there are three important factors to consider. First and foremost, ease of use. 

How quickly can the mute be put in place or removed? How important is this to 

you? Orchestral players some times only have one measure to install or remove a 

mute. Secondly, sound quality. The goal of a mute is to lower the volume only, not 

dampen the good quality of your instrument. Regarding overall sound quality, the 

degree to which a mute “rattles” when not in use but still on the strings between the 

bridge and tailpiece is important as well. Thirdly, aesthetics. Truth be told, many 

players consider the importance of overall look and feel, trying a variety of mutes to 

find out what works and looks best on their instrument. 

Heifetz Mute 

The unique design of the Heifetz mute allows the 

player to adjust the muting effect by sliding the 

metal tension clip down or up, muting more or less 

as a result. The metal tension clip is the part that is 

stamped “HEIFETZ”. Made of the highest quality 

materials, many professionals swear by this unique 

mute. The original Heifetz mute was very similar, 

but with a slightly different design. 

1319 $ 7.99 

Bech Magnetic 

When not in use, magnet holds mute firmly to plastic 

clip on tailpiece. Cello model uses self-adhesive tab 

which sticks to tailpiece instead of plastic clip. 

Non-rattling storage and quick accessibility. 

Violin & Viola 1309 $ 9.49 

Cello 1311 $ 11.49 

Traditional metal heavy practice mute, with a 

protective plastic coating. Slightly less muting than an uncoated mute, but less 

danger of damaging your instrument if the mute should fall off during use.

Ask the Maestro! 

What is the correct way to polish an instrument? 

Excellent question! Most importantly, start with one small section at a time, 

not a large section or the entire back, for example. I have seen more than 

a few players, even seasoned professionals, create quite a mess by trying 

to clean too large an area at a time. Whenever using a new brand of cleaner 

or polish for the first time, be sure to test it first on a small, inconsipuous 

spot. The directions you see below, which are found on the Professional 

Luthier Polish, detail an excellent technique for cleaning and polishing... 

Directions: 

Place appoximately 10-15 drops of polish on a clean, soft, folded cotton or 

microfiber cloth or clean soft folded paper towel. Using moderate pressure, rub polish 

onto varnish in a circular motion in 1” or larger circles. Wipe off polish before it has 

dried with another clean soft cloth or soft paper towel. Use light to moderate pressure 

either in a circular motion or in the direction of the grain.

We highly recommend this German made Professional Luthier

valued. This polish is the original formula used for decades by 

the world’s finest violin shops including the SHAR Repair & 

Restoration Shop. The reason that the Professional Luthier 

Polish is the choice of fine restoration shops is because of it’s 

effectiveness as a polish and cleaner while at the same time being 

mild enough to not cause damage to soft and/or delicate varnish. 

IMPORTANT: Some varnish is so delicate that even a very 

damp cloth will remove varnish, so we strongly advise players to 

follow the directions listed on this page regarding “How to polish 

an instrument”.

The Impressionist 

The Most Revolutionary Advance in Violin Comfort Since...the Chinrest! 

The Impressionist is the first real improvement in chinrest comfort in 178 years. 

Just soften in hot water, towel-dry, and place it on top of your violin or viola 

chinrest. Holding the instrument normally for five seconds allows The Impressionist 

to take an exact impression of your jaw. Give it fifteen minutes to cool, and that’s 

all there is to. And, you can reshape it as many times as you wish!

Air on the side of comfort! 

✔ Fits any instrument 

✔ 100% Comfort Guarantee 

✔ Lifetime Warranty 

✔ Made in the USA 

All Playonair Shoulder Rests provide the playing comfort of an inflatable 

cushion that adjusts to body movements and changing posture while playing. 

Elastic straps are adjustable so your Playonair can be placed in almost any 

position AND will fit any size violin or viola! No metal or sharp edges to mar 

instrument, non-slip finish is soft and pliable. Blow-tube included allows you 

to inflate to just the right level of firmness. 

The Playonair Duo Mate is a unique shoulder rest which combines the 

adjustability and playing comfort of an inflatable cushion of air AND the 

firm support of a conventional rigid shoulder rest. Fully inflated height 

is ideal for those seeking a shoulder rest with more depth (e.g. taller 

players). Fits 1/2 to 4/4 violins. Height 2”.

Mach One 

This high shoulder rest features an ergonomic 

design that fits naturally on your shoulder, 

and we have found its simple, sculpture-like 

shape to be very comfortable. The attaching 

feet are molded out of a single piece of nylon 

that won’t mark or scratch your instrument.

Mach One Hook Shoulder Rest 

Even more ergonomic than the famous original Mach One, the new “Hook” 

model rises to new levels of comfort for the busy player. Crafted in Canada 

of North American Maple, The Hook is a mere 5mm thick. A thin 

leather pad replaces the usual thick foam cushion, no longer needed 

for this design. Luthier Peter Mach’s intent in designing The 

Hook was for the shoulder rest to hug the shoulder even more, 

for a more comfortable fit. The violin Hook fits both 4/4 and 

3/4 violins, while the viola model will easily fit violas with lower 

bouts between 9” and 10 1/2”. 

Fits 4/4 and 3/4 Violins (1370HM 44) $ 69.95

Mach One MO7 Shoulder Rest 

To commemorate the 10 year anniversary of the original Mach One 

shoulder rest, Peter Mach has introduced the new M07 model that 

keeps the same famous ergonomic shape while minimizing the 

amount of material used. The Mach One M07 shoulder rest is made 

from a high-tech double-injection mold. The main body of the rest is 

resilient and strong, while the contact surface is made of a soft, grooved, 

rubberized compound, similar to what you might find on your toothbrush, for an incredible grip. 

Plus it is easily washable!

Ask the Maestro! 

Why use a humidifier? 

A very good and 

timely question! 

The winter months ahead will bring with them colder and drier air 

which can be dangerous for instruments and bows. Wood absorbs and 

releases moisture as humidity levels change in the surrounding air. 

Instruments are, of course, made of wood. Dry air causes wood to 

release moisture which causes it to shrink and/or shift ever so slightly 

which for your instrument can lead to cracks and expensive repair bills. 

Of course most instruments will not crack, but as your instrument dries 

out, its tone will change, and seldom does it change for the better! Bow 

horsehair shrinks in dry air which can impair sound quality, or cause the 

bow to warp, or could even result in a disastrous bow tip break. A good 

phrase that comes to mind is: “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound 

of cure”. Purchasing a relatively inexpensive humidifier will protect your 

investment and help you to sound your best. All humidifiers work best 

with distilled water. 

Oasis Humidifiers 

Easy to install! 

Visibly shrinks to show when to refill! 

Case Humidifier 

Water evaporates through the high-tech fabric of this 

humidifier, maintaining a constant level of humidity. Unlike 

many other humidifiers it is very easy to see when your Oasis 

needs refilling as the humidifier shrinks as water evaporates. 

Includes refilling syringe and a neodymium magnet system 

that allows you to install inside your case using either the 

included clip or sticky backed metal strip. Use of distilled 

water is recommended.

Bridges come in blank (oversize) form and must be fitted to the individual instrument. “Fitted” and “adjustable” 

bridges are ready to install with little or no further adjustment. Treated bridges are treated with natural minerals 

to harden the wood for optimum resonance, this process makes them darker in color.

What Does 

Inspiration Look Like? 

A great performance doesn’t just happen. It takes sensitive teaching and diligent learning. It takes

all that goes into a great performance. Designed by engineers in consultation with violinists, 

crafted by trained ateliers with skills developed only from years of experience, GL cases are 

everything a modern case should be – sleek but functional; durable but light; protective but 

stylish. Inspired... like a great performance. 

The GL Combi is the perfect blending of contemporary and traditional, with a multitude 

of features for the busy performer. No detail has been spared to create a distinctive and 

protective case that will stand out from the crowd.

A note to Shar customers . . . from the desk of Charles Avsharian 

For almost five decades, Shar has been the trusted partner of string players 

everywhere. Whether searching the world over for new and exciting products, 

or developing new products to meet the ever-changing needs of performing 

colleagues, it has been my privilege and delight to lead these efforts at Shar. 

So, when the opportunity arose to bring the American Case Company back 

home to Shar ownership, I didn’t hesitate. Because when there is a great 

partnership, the musician reaps the benefits . . . the benefits of understanding 

both the musician’s demands AND manufacturing processes that can satisfy 

them; the benefits of quality craftsmanship in a traditional hard-shell format; 

the benefits of Shar’s customer service delivery, which is second to none. 

Our Manhattan case continues in the American Case tradition, offering 

outstanding protection in a highly-arched design. And, because of the great 

acceptance of our new Shar Pro Series cases, we decided to further refine these 

models and create the exciting new Eagle series – the promise of American 

Case at a very affordable price.

There is no one simple answer. Rather, there are a number of factors you 

should consider. Different cases have different strengths and weaknesses, 

and you’ll need to weigh those pros and cons against each other before 

making your decision. The biggest differences in cases really come down to 

the materials from which they are made: plywood, foam, thermoplastic, 

fiberglass, carbon-fiber, and composite plastics, are all 

possibilities in the hunt for the appropriate case. 

If you’re looking for a durable 

beginner case, take a look at 

thermoplastic. These cases are pretty 

no-nonsense; they’re lightweight, they’re 

strong, but they don’t have much in the 

way of amenities or style. 

If you’re looking for a lightweight case, consider foam. Foam cases 

are very lightweight, though they tend to be a bit bulky; there’s a certain 

thickness that foam has to cross for it to be protective enough to keep 

your instrument reasonably free from harm. They are usually better than 

wood cases at protecting from shocks such as drops, but not as good 

against impact or crushing. It is an 

excellent choice for students who may 

be keeping their instrument mostly at 

home, and maybe taking it to lessons 

every week, or for anyone who needs 

the lightest possible case. 

If you’re looking for good protection at a reasonable price, wood 

might be worth a look. Wood cases are typically slimmer than foam cases, 

and also more rigid and durable. 

Though heavier than foam cases, the 

extra protection against crushing and 

impacts that they afford can give you 

great peace of mind that may be worth 

the occasionally sore shoulders.

Apprentice Help 

Which case is 

right for me? 

If you’re looking for something less bulky, try a dart-shaped case. 

Oblong cases allow you to carry your sheet music along with your violin, 

which is quite convenient and helps circumvent embarrassing situations in 

orchestra practice. However, they 

take up a great deal of space, and 

tend to weigh more. Dart shaped 

cases are lighter and more 

compact, and can make life 

much easier when navigating 

crowded public transportation. 

If you need something durable and lightweight but aren’t concerned 

about budget, carbon-fiber and composite plastics are the way togo. 

These cases are top of the line in terms of protection, as the construction 

materials used are extremely rigid. These materials are also extremely 

light, making them the best of 

both worlds. They can also be very 

slim. However, their cost tends to 

be a bit prohibitive to players who 

are just dipping their toes in the 

violin-playing world, but can be well 

worth it when you are protecting an 

expensive instrument. 

One note about airline travel. Different airlines have different restrictions 

on what they will allow in overhead compartments. For most airlines, the 

linear dimensions (adding 

the length, width, and depth) 

cannot exceed 45 inches. 

Very few cases meet these 

dimensions, but there is some 

variance between airlines, so 

be sure to check with your 

airline before your flight to see what their restrictions are. 

Backpacks and Case Covers. Most cases come with 

backpacking systems these days, but if you have an older 

case or just want something more comfortable, try a 

case cover or backpack system such as Cushy. Many of 

these covers also add extra thermal and shock protection 

through their padding, as well as extra storage room for 

sheet music and accessories. They will add to the bulk 

of your case, but most are light and the ease of carrying 

them can in many cases offset this extra bulk.

All Cushy ® Cello and Bass Bags include a zippered 

music pocket, zippered bow pocket with padded 

bow sheath, and a gusseted accessory pouch. 

This expertly crafted CUSHY ® Cello Bag provides exceptional 

all-weather protection. Lightweight, rugged and durable, this 

bag will act like a down blanket, protecting your instrument 

and bow from rapid changes in temperature. 

Lightweight construction and ergonomically placed handles make 

them comfortable to carry, perfect for musicians on the go! 

Expertly crafted using fiberglass-reinforced foam padding fused 

to black, weather resistant backpack cloth. Sturdy zippers have 

heavy duty sliders and are cloth backed so the zipper never touches 

the instrument. Includes a full length zippered music pocket, 

zippered bow pocket with padded bow sheath, two backpack-style 

straps, and a gusseted accessory pocket. Includes neck cinch strap.

40 Crosmer-Popper Duets 

Jeremy Crosmer 

3306-057 $25.00 

David Popper’s 40 High School Etudes for 

cello, much like Paganini’s 24 Caprices for 

violin, are at the center of study to develop 

advanced technical proficiency. Gifted young 

cellist Jeremy Crosmer has created 40 new 

etudes, designed to be played alongside 

Popper’s original etudes. These etudes can 

be played alone, for careful study. But when 

played alongside Popper’s original etudes, 

they become cello duets of the highest order, 

opening a completely new musical dimension, 

suitable for study as well as for recital.

April Verch 

0066-056 $25.00 

The first woman in history to have won both of 

Canada’s most prestigious fiddle championships, 

the Grand Masters and Canadian Open, April 

Verch’s desire to share music is why she’s among the 

most in-demand performers in roots music today. 

This book contains 27 of April’s compositions, 

from her five recordings and live performances. 

Each tune is notated with bowings, ornamentation 

and chords for accompanists. In the introduction, 

April includes detailed suggestions for using the 

book and for learning fiddle tunes in general. 

Six String Quartets, Op. 

18 - Two Violins, Viola and Cello 

Ludwig Beethoven - edited by the Guarneri Quartet 

5266 050 $40.00 

“Any violinist who has played chamber music is 

familiar with the charm and sublime beauty of 

these early quartets by the great master. And there 

are many editions available. My favorite edition 

is from Continental Publishing: Not only is the 

paper of the highest quality, with all page turns 

in convenient places, but this version is edited by 

none other than members of the great Guarneri 

String Quartet. A true performance edition, it is 

loaded with practical and detailed performance 

notes, fingerings and bowings that beautifully 

integrate all four parts into a command 

performance. For any serious chamber player, 

this is a ‘must have’, and what I feel is the best 

edition of these works.” - Val Jaskiewicz, Violinist 

and SHAR VP of Merchandising

12 Etudes – Caprices in the Styles of the Great 

Composers 

Amy Barlowe 

0031 112 $19.95 

Written by Juilliard trained violinist/composer, 

Amy Barlowe, this is a welcome addition to the 

intermediate solo violin repertoire. Progressive 

and chronologically ordered, these innovative 

etudes are invaluable both as study pieces and 

short, unaccompanied concert works for 

competitions or recital programs. Detailed 

Practice Guides follow each etude. This fully 

illustrated and thoroughly engaging collection 

of original etudes provides a fresh and unique 

approach to the age old tradition of technical 

study. Preparation for the major works of the 

great composers has never been more fun! 

“Amy Barlowe has done it again.....creating something totally original. The etudes 

themselves are musically pleasing when compared to many other technique builders. 

By providing her section on technical elements and musical features to be addressed, 

something only a trained and highly competent player/teacher might provide, she has 

added frosting to an already award-winning cake. Bravo Amy!” 

- Charles Avsharian, Concert performer, Violin teacher, CEO SHAR Music

Infeld 

The tonal balance and playing characteristics are excellent 

throughout, with Infeld Red producing a darker sound, while 

Infeld Blue brings out the instrument’s brilliance. Both sets 

settle in quickly, have a low overall tension which produces an 

open, transparent sound and are very responsive to different 

playing techniques. The large and full sound makes these 

strings suitable for soloists and chamber music players.

Spirocore 

Hi-tech spiral steel core strings. This core has a greater 

elasticity than conventional strings, which means less inertia 

and a longer period of musical vibration. The sound is full 

and homogenous, balanced and voluminous. Equally effective 

playing arco or pizzicato. Spirocore’s hi-tech core makes for 

effortless fingering, responsive bowing, stable tuning and a 

very long string life.

Dominant 

Comparable in sound to gut, but without the disadvantages 

of gut strings. The sound is full and mellow, and rich in 

overtones. Its ability to project sound without being metallic 

comes to the fore both in arco and pizzicato. Also offers 

effortless response to intricate fingering and tuning stability 

even under extreme humidity and temerature conditions. 

See why Dominant strings are called “The Reference 

Standard” and used by professional players as well as 

students of all levels.

Gut core strings produce the darkest, 

richest sound. Since gut is a natural 

fiber, it will react to changes in 

temperature and humidity. Response 

is slower than other string types. Use 

with fine tuners is not recommended. 

Synthetic core strings are meant to 

sound as similar to gut as possible, but 

with superior stability and durability. 

Stronger than gut, synthetic strings 

are not as susceptible to changes in 

humidity. Sound is generally brighter 

than gut, with a faster response. Use 

with fine tuners is not recommended. 

Steel core strings are brighter in 

tone and more responsive than gut or 

synthetic strings. They consist of a single 

strand of steel that is not as susceptible to 

climate changes and will generally last a 

long time. May be used with fine tuners. 

Rope core strings are brighter than 

steel. The core consists of many thin 

strands of steel. Fastest response of all 

the strings, not as susceptible to climate 

changes. May be used with fine tuners.

BowMate 

The Perfect Bow Hold 

Molded, adjustable bow hold for Violin or Viola. Fits on top of the 

bow grip, it’s designed to provide optimal placement of the players 

hand for better comfort and control. 

The simple design means it can be taken on and off the bow easily, 

without the need to remove the frog, and can be placed and adjusted 

on the bow for a custom fit to the players hand. The contoured, 

ergonomic design ensures the index finger is in the ideal position 

which aligns all the fingers into the proper position. This helps 

advance playing skills, keeps the bow hairs perpendicular to the 

strings, and increases consistency and quality of play.

Shar Frog Meister Demonstration Bow 

Invented by Dr. Suzuki himself, this unique, short (17 inch) bow is used by violin teachers 

worldwide to help break young violin students of the common habit of playing only in the 

upper half of the bow! Because the bow is so short, it forces the player to position the right 

hand in the lower bow position. Great for brush-up practice even for advanced players. 

Full-size frog and head works perfectly for all ages and levels.
