2 weeks ago, Renee's teacher told me that I needed to bring the get the upper part(can't rem the term nor do I know how to explain hahaha) of the instrument filed lower 'cos it seems that it's causing Renee some problem when pressing on the area for some flat notes.
This violin was purchased by her previous teacher on our behalf and we had already noticed this problem then but nothing was suggested and so, Renee had carried on playing it, hurting her fingers whenever she tried to get the correct tune for the few particular flat notes, :(.
Last Sunday, the teacher asked if I've already got the violin fixed but, as she wasn't entirely sure if that could be done when she told me about it, I had not acted on it! Suddenly remembering it yesterday, I told hubby about it and since he's got some free time today, we brought it down to Synwin(instead of Gramercy as suggested by the teacher). We were told that we'd most probably only be able to collect it tomorrow but just an hour after we've got home, they sent a text to me that the violin is ready! To think that we were still within the area('cos we'd walked over to Suntec city) for that few hours, haiz... No choice, we'll have to try and collect it after her classes tomorrow and hopefully we'd have the time to let them fix up the new chin rest for Renee to try(been wanting to change it for her since some time ago).
