The Secrets of Violin Making: A Master Luthier Shares His Craft

[@thatpersonsmusic]

I’ve gotten my violins from him in the past, it’s always a joy heading into the shop

[@naybaby5778]

I’m in love with the idea of someone being able to make wonderful things with their own two hands. I’m glad arts like this are still alive.

It was a fascinating visit.

I can play lots of different musical instruments, but making one NO. It takes a special sort of patience that I dont have. Very interesting video 2x👍

Great video!. I love to see Geoff play the fiddle. He is always smiling, and it looks like he is truly enjoying every tune he plays!

[@MansardStudios]

He was very gracious to have us in his shop

I grew up down the street from where my mom grew up, and I took piano lessons from the same lady my mom took guitar lessons from, Mrs. Elliot. She would call my mom’s guitar a guitfiddle.

Mrs Elliot sounds like a fun person!

@@MansardStudios She was great.

very educational!....see, I always thought that a "fiddle" was just a violin that had beer spilled on it.
