    Before you exit this website, be sure that you have spent as much time as needed to read and comprehend all of the information included.  Although I have tried to take complex topics and reduce them to a most simplified form so that the average musician can better understand, it is still extremely difficult for the average musician to understand these individual working components because they do not occupy themselves with centimeters, millimeters, wood thicknesses, etc.  Their primary concerns are aesthetics, healthy construction, playability, tone quality and projection.  All of the written information and photographs presented in this website only highlight the physical appearance of my instruments, but not the tone, playability or projection.  The only way to judge my instruments is by auditioning them in as many varied performing environments as possible.  Vigorously put them through the most demanding situations and you will be convinced that you can purchase a Cremona quality instrument without paying Cremona prices.

 

    Please feel free to contact me or see the contact page for the person or persons in your area for additional information.

 

Thank you for visiting – Sincerely,
