“My goal is to help every instrument come alive through design and hand picked wood. It ​takes attention to detail. Each piece of wood that I choose to build my instruments must ​have the qualities I am looking for (and listen for) in order to build the finest sounding ​instruments. As a violinist, I have a sense for the feel, tone and vibrance of a great violin and that is what I ​strive to create in all of my hand-made instruments.” - Cheryl Macomber
