Listen to the wonderful sound! - At least I love it and it happens during one of my favourite parts of making a violin.

Great news that Tim Kliphuis is on the line-up for the Shetland Folk Festival in May. Here he is having a shot on a commissioned violin that I completed back in August. My customer took it straight over to the Grappelli-Django Camp Summer School in the Netherlands.
