Mr. Waybright is an EXCELLENT luthier. He was able to squeeze in 4 bow rehairs and a minor repair job for us in less than 24 hours. He is very personable and well worth the 4 hour drive for his expertise. If you need your fine instrument worked on, he is the best to do it in Texas. Highly recommend.
Grateful and Happy! He really does wonderful, beautiful work! It will be a joy to play my violin again! Thank you, Josh “Waybright Violins”, the best! When Jay R. Rury retired, I wasn’t sure where to go. I teach but do not perform regularly. My violin was sufficient, though in desperate need of a tune up and repairs. The bridge needed to be replaced and openings needed to be glued. My bow also needed a rehair. Upon recommendation of several friends, I felt confident in bringing my violin to Waybright Violins. I told him my budget and he stayed within my target. I was thrilled when I opened my case and saw the varnish restored. When I played, It sounded better than when I had bought it, as others have noted. I am looking forward to seeing how much it opens once the new strings settle. I’m so excited about playing again and that is priceless!
Professional, excellent quality work! Mr. Waybrights upgrades to my sons cello took the sound from eh to wow!
First time here today. Mr. Waybright is so nice. He helped fix my cello. Will definitely be back for any instrumental repairs/needs. Would highly recommend.
Incredibly knowledgeable and professional luthier. Brought my bow in for a rehair and noticed such an improvement in my sound after. Fair prices and worth every penny. I wont go to anyone else in DFW!
Mr. Joshua did the setup for my new Violin, he is such a kindhearted man with lots of ethics and charisma. Thank you 🙏🏻💫🌸
I brought a professional viola in for a new bridge, and it sounds even better after he looked at it than when I bought it! Amazing quality of work, and you can tell that he loves what he does. 10/10 would recommend!
Joshua did fantastic setup!! My violin now sound like never before. Highly recommended!!
Everyone knows Josh Waybright is the best in the business. Not only that but an all around wonderful person. (Plus, always got a great story from his years at Beares in London.) His work is excellent beyond compare.
Josh did an amazing job cutting a new bridge and adjusting my violin. Sounded better than it ever has.
Visited Waybright to have a bow re-haired. Great service and decent value. 48 hour turnaround time. Will go back
Mr Waybright is an all around great guy and is the quintessential violin restorer.
Joshua is the luthier of choice for most Dallas Symphony and Fort Worth Symphony players. I am always happy with his work on my instruments.
Good.
Joshua Waybright is a remarkable luthier who combines many years of experience as a superior master-restorer with being an excellent violin maker. His bow rehairs are also the best in the DFW. He knows everything there is to know about the art of a string instrument; he is super honest and his pricing is the fairest on the market. I have tried several well-known luthiers after coming to Dallas in 2000. After I have found Mr. Waybright, my search was over. No wonder most of the DSO and FWSO musicians use him as well.
One of the best Luthiers in the world today.
Best repair shop in the area!
Beautiful music!
