STRINGED INSTRUMENTS
Stringed Instrument Making & Restoration Workshop
Dedicated to traditional lutherie, I specialise in crafting custom-made plucked & bowed stringed instruments. Drawing on historical designs blended with my own original style, each instrument is meticulously handcrafted with aged woods and traditional techniques, resulting in unique and authentic works of art.
With over three decades of experience, I offer expert restoration and repair services for violin, guitar, lute, and mandolin family instruments. My workshop is located in the scenic Dandenong Ranges, 35 kilometers east of Melbourne's CBD. I welcome all inquiries and invite you to visit my workshop to witness the craftsmanship firsthand.
In The Workshop
Classical Guitars
My specialty is making classical guitars inspired by the master made Spanish guitars of the late 19th & early 20th century. I use traditional techniques and skills, refined by generations of luthiers to craft guitars which aim to possess the sound, aesthetic and spirit of the old world guitars.
Custom Stringed Instruments
Additionally I engage in commissioned projects recreating rare design stringed instruments. Past custom work has included 19th century gut and steel string parlor guitars as well as historical instruments such as mandolins, lutes, theorbo's, violins, viols & bows.
Restoration
As well as new instrument making, I also restore violins & bows, acoustic guitars, mandolins, lutes, viols & bows. I find restoration work particularly rewarding and I offer my experience, skills & knowledge to the preservation of all stringed instruments from the past.
