Silas is in the shop today getting the rough graduation done on this cello back for me while I lay out the scroll. It's great to have him here helping out in meaningful ways!

Fall is a great time to freshen up your set up and make sure your instrument is performing at its best. Cincinnati and other nearby musicians, I would love to help as you begin a new school year or season!

I had the pleasure of hearing my niece, Karissa give a beautiful performance of the Mendelssohn violin concerto today. I am also honored that she is playing a violin that I made recently. I always love finding homes for my instruments, but it feels so good to have another one stay in the family!

A perfectly chalk fit bass bar with a sharp plane doesn't really need this many clamps. Do I still use them? Yes I do. It makes me feel better. None of them are very tight. Just enough pressure to hold the bar in place. When a bar fits well it almost suctions itself in place after the glue is applied. It is quite satisfying don't you think?

As the semi-accurate quote from Mark Twain states, "Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated." After a number of people have said to me that they thought I was away from work indefinitely, I thought I should make an announcement. As it is the case that I had surgery to alleviate some numbness in my fingers, I have since recovered and am very much back at the bench doing what I love. Reach out if you need repair, maintenance, or a fresh set up for spring. New instruments are in the works as well! I hope to see you soon.
