I Read Your Toughest Comments (Q&A)

Do violin makers really use CNC machines? Are Chinese violins really that bad? Can carbon fiber replace traditional violin making? These are just a few of the questions and comments you've left on my YouTube channel over the past few weeks. In this Q&A, I sit down to answer some of your most interesting (and sometimes most challenging!) comments. We talk about handmade violins, CNC technology, carbon fiber bridges, Chinese violins, violin setup, wood preparation, bass bar fitting, and many other topics related to violin making. I always enjoy reading your comments because they often lead to discussions that help all of us learn something new. Even after more than 45 years of making violins, I still believe there is always something worth exploring. If you've ever wondered how a professional violin maker thinks about these subjects, I hope you'll find this video interesting.
