Welcome to RobertMillerViolins.com!

Robert T. Miller has been in business as a restorer of stringed instruments and maker of bows for over forty years.
Trained as a classical musician with a degree in music education, Bob worked as a K-12 music teacher for twenty years prior to opening his shop. His previous career as an educator informs his approach to working with clients: he ensures that clients understand all aspects of the services to be provided, and he works with musicians playing at all levels to help them achieve the best possible sound and playability for their unique instruments.
A member of the Violin Society of America, Bob has studied with internationally renowned violin restorer Hans Nebel, bow maker William Salchow and violin maker Charles Smith. He has also done an advanced study of retouching with Oliver Perot and Paul Weissmeyer. Bob works on all instruments in the violin family, ranging from student grade instruments to fine antiques.

Bob is pleased to be able to pass on his knowledge and passion for his craft to his associate, Danny Rand, an accomplished cellist well-versed in the nuances and challenges players of string instruments experience. Danny studied Cello Performance at Bowling Green State University with Dr. Alan Smith, and he performs with the Portland-based band, The Dapper Gents, in addition to his solo work.
