This poor bass has been through a lot... Managed to piece it together and make it look a bit better. More importantly, it's ready to make more music!

Luthier by day, violinist by night. Love my life.

Can you spot the problem? I did it intentionally...

From a block of wood to a one-of-a-kind tailpiece. My hands are blessed.

This is a Prim. It is the soprano voice of tamburitzan ensemble. This particular instrument is hand/home made by an instructor for a student. Lots of challenges including inlays and custom tailpiece work. It sounds great and is fun to play!

David found this bow in a pile of old, rental bows I was about to discard. I fixed the tip, polished the cool frog fittings and rehaired it. Came in the next morning to find the bow lying on the bench, hair loose, with the cheek blown out. I decided to try repairing it. I used a scrap bow for material and this is the result! Bow works great and looks decent. I need a greater selection of wood to match color and grain, but the repair is good.

Today I slowed down to work on a nice fiddle from the early part of the 20th cent. The most challenging part of the repair is the bulging rib on the lower bout. But the button also was tricky. Next will be closing it up and fitting all new accessories!
