S EVERY EXPERIENCCD MUSIC EDUCATOR KNOWS, Acom•ct adjustment of string instruments is an absolute must for successful teaching and learning. It saves "time out" and permits maximum performance because fittings are accurate and reliably stay in place. • Illustrated here are the things to look for and insi:,t upon when you purchase string instruments. Of course, you won't have to look far, because only Roth can give you all these important features! • All Roth instruments are adjusted in our Cleveland shops (U.S.A. adjustment is essential) by experienced violin craftsmen, with the same professional care as Roth Artist instruments. So can you afford not to specify instruments by Roth? • Our Education Department is unequaled in the string iield, maintained by and for music educators. Let us put you on our mailing list for educational materials and free copies of our string quarterly, "Orchestra News".
