Closing out the week scraping tailpieces

Every single AA product passes through one set of hands - cut, shaped, scraped, sanded and finished by Luke.

Each tailpiece undergoes four hours of hand crafting to take it from log, to rough cut, to finished product, and finally, to your instrument.

Tailpiece pre-orders are now live!

But for those of you in urgent need, all these examples are available on the shop, ready to ship.

As for the pre-orders, both French and English styles are available in Boxwood, Rosewood and Ebony between 100mm-120mm in length. You can configure your tailpiece exactly to your liking, down to the fret.

Same goes for the chinrest pre-orders, there's a variety of models, materials, and fittings available on our store. Just head to the pre-orders section.

Pre-Orders are live now!

You beautiful people sell the shop out faster than we can put listings up, so we've listened to your feedback and set up an option to pre-order chinrests if they're unavailable on the store.

For the moment it's a selection of favourites, Guarnerius', Tekas. etc - The Classics. But we'll be adding the lesser known models over the next few weeks so keep an eye out. I've popped the link to the pre-order page in our bio.

Pictured are a few favourites from the next batch of chinrests we have available now. They're listed on the shop and can ship immediately to a loving home.

Give you three guesses what's wrong with this picture.

We were commissioned to replicate a chinrest, which was going well until fresh eyes realised we'd made a mirror copy. To err is human, and other phrases to that effect.

After a little self flagellation and words I won't repeat here, we copied the chinrest CORRECTLY for our client and have sent it on its way.

In unrelated news, we now have a lovely left hand Surfboard available on the shop!

Some more glamour shots of the St Cecilia we made recently. We've been treated to some gorgeous weather here in the UK this past week, good excuse to grab some more photos of her in the sun.

Shot just outside our workshop on the hottest day of the year (so far).

Honoured to have been trusted with bringing this idea to life - A riff on the 'St Cecilia' tailpiece.

Our brief was to add a touch of femininity and depict her playing a violin, rather than a lyre. And add a matching chinrest for good measure.

Entirely hand carved into ebony. Thrilled to have had this opportunity to be a little more creative with our carvings, rather than copying an original one to one.
