Meet the Manager

Stephen D.

Manager

It started with violin lessons at age 11 for 5 years with a lapse for further education and an Accounting Practice when I realized there had to be more to life than just business. Music was an important part of my past thus I purchased one violin to renew my interest. However it went from one violin to 50, to 70 to 100 and more violins. As a collector I had to learn how to repair them.

Took an extensive course with the best makers and restorers on how to make and repair violins, cellos and even how to make bows. Have made many fine instruments that look and sound great! Also have other new and old instruments as well as consignments from customers. Come and try one!
