AR DISTRIBUTION

Who we are

AR Distribution is a specialist, trade-only distributor of musical instrument accessories and bowed orchestral stringed instruments. Founded by Allyxa Ruby, we’ve been trading in the UK since 2001. Allyxa plays the cello and has a master's degree in Practical Bowed Strings Teaching.

We work closely with suppliers and customers to carry a range of products that performs exceptionally well for real players. The makers we partner with keep musicians’ needs as the focus of their products.

How we work

• Service that goes above and beyond. We aim to be friendly, responsive, practical and easy to deal with for shops and luthiers.
• Carefully chosen brands. We represent makers and products we use ourselves, so we can answer questions knowledgeably.
• Ethical production. We place importance on working with suppliers who produce responsibly.

Who we supply

We’re a trade-only distributor. If you’re a retailer or luthier, we’d love to help you source the right products and keep your players happy. If you’re a musician looking to buy, please contact your local shop or online retailer - and if you’re struggling to find a particular product, get in touch and we’ll help you.

We love feedback

We always welcome feedback from our customers and the musicians who use our products. If you’d like to discuss anything we carry - what’s working, what could be improved, or ideas for new arrivals - please drop us a line.
