Howery Violins

Fiddle Jameson: The purfling corners are all glued in, the arching or the outside curvature of the plates is almost finished all except the finalizing of the edges. The final shaping of the edges will occur after everything else is done on the plates. There’s a fair amount of dinging and danging on the edges during the graduation process, sound holes, bass bar and finally glue up and leaving a little extra wood at this time is a good idea. Now I’m working on the graduation, which is carving the thickness of the plates. The graduation phase is probably the most important aspect of the instruments sound. It determines the resonance of the plates; how they will vibrate when a violinist draws a bow on the strings
