    Tom is an excellent craftsman. I just started my violin journey when my bridge broke. While scouring the internet I stumbled upon Tom. I went into to his beautiful workshop where he quickly and efficiently sized and placed the new bridge all while explaining what he was doing to me, the complete novice. And at the end he gave me some tips to practice. Truly a wonderful man. Thank you so much.

    I took my violin into Tom To have some work on the neck angle.. He was very thorough in checking out all the measurements and what would need to be done. His workmanship and skill were excellent so I'm very happy to have my violin back to where it's playable thanks to Tom. Much appreciated.
