Dropped Off my Czech Violin to Have New Fittings Put In.
October 28, 2007 at 1:41 AM
I just dropped off my office violin, an old beat up Czech Violin to have pegs, a finger board, and a chin rest that are inlayed with gypsy like markings, in hopes of creating a "Gypsy Violin" at Bryan Duckworth's Violin Shop in San Antonio.It was good to see Bryan's shop again. It's an hour drive but well worth it. He's always friendly and helpful. Willing to do great work at a fair price. He stayed an hour past closing to show me several violins and play a bit.
He showed me a nice Texas made violin, that I will likely pick up.
