"I've been fortunate in that I'm able to earn my living doing what I like best, making music--not just as a player but also designing and making instruments, strings, and accessories, too. In many ways I'm a perfectionist, especially about my strings. They must be the very best strings available anywhere--with clear, singing highs and rich sonorous lows--and able to withstand the constant changes of climate in my continent-hopping existence. Very few strings measure up. These do."
