Unused Violin for 10 years

Hi,

I have a violin which has been kept in a storage room for 10 years. Would it still work? If so, what repairs or process is needed before I could use it again. Thanks.

Yes, but a luthier should give it the once over. It will certainly need restringing and the body and neck might need a wee bit of oil and wax.

should be fine!! would need new strings though, which can be expensive and possibly a rehairing for the bow?
