Every time I visit Animato I am always happy I chose to go there! Service and value are always amazing and the quality of their products means you can always something in your price range.

The most amazing string store I have ever visited. Amazing range of violins, violas, cellos and double basses, including beautiful vintage instruments. Very friendly and engaging staff and store owner. If you love string instruments, you must visit this store!

What an amazing shop. It's like stepping into a different world, looking around at the lovely interior, and filled with instruments. It also seems like stepping into a different world due to the amazing service making one feel welcome and at home. Dietrich and all his staff are knowledgable and advise on such a personal level, taking their time and attention to detail without bias.
By far the best music store for string instruments, if not the best store in general in Brisbane.
Pricing is more than fair, repairs can be done on the spot, and genuine advice is given freely to help everyone to the best experience with their instrument. Thank you.

Approximate cost: $750

I have been visiting Animato strings for many years. They explain the condition of the instrument in detail, recommend the right instrument to the customer, and the management of the instrument is excellent. And thank you always to the friendly staff.

Animato Strings have always looked after my contra bass. They are very knowledgeable about basses and instrument repairs.

Dietrich is patient and kind to my students, taking time to listen to needs and help them get just the right instrument, the right chin rest and the right shoulder rest and strings. The personal service here is second to none, and it is always warms my heart to hear of the attention and respect delivered to each student as they grow into that bigger and better sounding instrument. Thank you, Dietrich, for making my job easier.

I’ve been coming to Animato for the past 20 years - as a young student, then tertiary student, professional musician and teacher. Dietrich and Jae don’t just run a string shop, they’ve helped nurture and develop the string community in Queensland and nationally by putting people first. I appreciate their authenticity and would happily recommend Animato to anyone looking for instruments or accessories.
