Posted on April 9, 2009 at 01:11 PM I just received string magazine yesterday and read that . I remember responding to him when he asked his questions. (dont remember if it was on this site or another) I was happy to hear what members had done for him. His statement that the world could use more folks like those found here, made me think we could use a few more like him as well.
Enjoy your violin Tim and stay safe. From Cris Zulueta
