Instruments

Every violin maker has his own secrets and personal sensibility.
His ideas are the expression of years of experience and research.

Students, orchestra players and soloists can find invaluable advice and feedback in the work and in the ability of their luthier to understand their needs.

I have different model instruments designed to suit these needs.

Models available:

The Bignami  

This uses the pattern Bignami got from his own teacher and that he passed on to me.
Many instruments built using this model are used by many professional players,

The smooth profile and the well proportioned arching produce a very powerful tone.

 Designed for a petite violin player who requested smaller measurements and proportions. I patterned this model after her Testori, the size of wich was comfortable for her but did not have the sound she needed for her solo work.
The result was a powerful sounding instrument, built in the pattern of a great Milanese maker, that she was thoroughly satisfied with.
