About Us: Meet the Founder and The Cellist’s Passion Behind String Power

 

Welcome to String Power;  your Trusted Online String Specialist.

String Power is a dedicated online boutique built by musicians, for musicians of all levels—from beginners picking up their first bow to seasoned professionals. By operating purely online without the high overhead of a traditional brick-and-mortar showroom, we are able to pass maximum savings directly on to you while delivering premium quality straight to your doorstep.

Founded in 2015 by Cuban-American cellist Alain Orbiz, String Power was born out of a passion for music and a mission to make high-quality, reliable instruments accessible to everyone.

As a classically trained cellist who has performed alongside global superstars including Alejandro Sanz and Laura Pausini, Alain brings decades of professional experience to the shop. Today, he combines his background as an active performer and educator to:

  • Hand-Select Gear: Choosing instruments and accessories based on tone, craft, and durability.

  • Guide Student Choices: Helping parents and teachers find the exact right fit and size remotely.

  • Guarantee Readiness: Ensuring every instrument comes with a protective case or padded bag and undergoes a thorough quality check before it ships.

The Online Advantage

Because we don't operate a physical retail storefront, we focus all our energy on giving you the ultimate online buying experience:

  • 7-Day In-Home Trial: Test your instrument in your own playing environment—the ultimate way to try before you fully commit.

  • Direct Value: No retail markups, just exceptional instruments at competitive prices.

  • Expert Support: Dedicated guidance via phone or email from string players who know the gear inside and out.
