Sound posts are a unique aspect of the violin family, essential to both an instrument's structure and its sound. They're also among the more challenging repairs a player can face. Shar Music's own Aaron Johnson and Michael Holmes walk you through how to set your own sound post, but also detail why you might want to consider having your local luthier do it instead.
DISCLAIMER: As stated in the video, setting a sound post safely requires a professional level of training. To avoid the risk of damaging your instrument, we highly recommend bringing your instrument into a shop when setting a sound post.
