Maker of Violins, Violas and Cellos

Alyssa, my first violin

Alyssa, dedicated to the memory of Alyssa Elaine LaFrance, is modeled after Stradivarius.  She was my first violin, completed under the direction of my teacher, Karl Roy.  I sold her to a champion fiddler, Tom Wilkinson in 1989.   He played her for a number of years, and then sold her to a dealer, who in turn sold her to Dave and Cindy Poplawski who own two more of my violins, Emma and Mona.
