hmm... this is bad, real bad
i'm not a violinist, but a staff in a music school
i got 2 students who hv this fallen sound post..
but luckily one of them have 2 violins... so she can use another one
then another lady she only have 1 violin... bad luck for her

i know one violinist who actually have this tool and know how to fix it in penang, but he is a busy man and travel a lot.. (mostly oversea)
other then him.. i dunno who else to have this skill...
(even called to a shop who specialized in selling violin, but they jus dun have the man n tool)

so since this is the case, so i would rather get a tool and learn it with one of my dedicated violin teacher.

well, the violins are entry level.... cost less then rm300 (good news i think)
i saw it in ebay... but if i can get it from kl, then what for i order online..

thanks for your advise little ice..
i have much to learn from you


i'm quite dissapointed when i found out there are violin teachers
who dun even know that their student is using a violin which have fallen sound post..
can't even hear the hollow sound from the violin...
