Newly built instruments reach a large part of their sound potential after only a short time.<\/p>\n<p>The processing of the wood and the construction of the instrument create tensions in the material, which are relieved by the vibrations during playing in; the wood &#8220;vibrates freely&#8221;. On an instrument that has just been finished, the wood, especially of the top and back, has not yet undergone every possible form of movement and is still resisting the oscillations of the strings. When you play the instrument, the components are vibrated and can &#8220;relax&#8221;; comparable to a person who can loosen their muscles by stretching and moving after getting out of bed.<\/p>\n<p>This process takes a few weeks, but is then largely completed. By the way, this applies comparably to old instruments that have not been played for a long time. The fear that an instrument will lose its sound if it is not played permanently is unfounded.<\/p>\n<p>The decision between an old instrument and a new one is not a question of the sound superiority of the &#8220;old&#8221;, but of the individual demands and wishes, and to a certain extent also of the personalities of musician and instrument.<\/p>\n<p><em>Get to know our newly built instruments at your leisure. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-caedc3b elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"caedc3b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/vanderheyd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200309-vdH-img-web-rohling-geigenbau--1024x683.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5530\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vanderheyd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200309-vdH-img-web-rohling-geigenbau--1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/vanderheyd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200309-vdH-img-web-rohling-geigenbau--300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/vanderheyd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200309-vdH-img-web-rohling-geigenbau--768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/vanderheyd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200309-vdH-img-web-rohling-geigenbau-.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\"><\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-95f1f5a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"95f1f5a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ca32a6e elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"ca32a6e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1890d19 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1890d19\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Treat yourself to a unique string instrument<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ab98d7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1ab98d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Customized work tailored to your specifications<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-05461f7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"05461f7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe make musical instruments of the highest quality to measure, <br>entirely according to your personal wishes and based on the models of old masters.

Typically, the wood undergoes a seasoning period of 5 to 10 years to minimize its moisture content, ensuring enhanced stability and resonance.<\/p>\n<p>2) Maple (Acer): Maple is often used for the back, sides and neck of stringed instruments. Commonly, the wood is seasoned for a minimum of 5 years, and often longer, to optimize its stability and acoustic properties.<\/p>\n<p>3) Ebony (Diospyros): Ebony is often used for fingerboards, chinrests and pegs. This type of wood is notably dense and is often employed directly in instrument fabrication without the need for seasoning.<\/p>\n<p>The duration of seasoning can vary based on wood type, luthier&#8217;s preference, and the specific crafting method employed. The goal of seasoning is to adjust the wood&#8217;s moisture content, ensuring it remains resilient and free from warping or fractures during the instrument-making process. It also allows the wood to develop and mature its acoustic properties, which can lead to a better sound of the instrument.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1952\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1952\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><svg class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 384.662V127.338c0-17.818 21.543-26.741 34.142-14.142l128.662 128.662c7.81 7.81 7.81 20.474 0 28.284L34.142 398.804C21.543 411.404 0 402.48 0 384.662z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><svg class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Where do bow hairs come from and how are they treated?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1952\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1952\"><p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 1rem;\">The hairs usually come from horses&#8217; tails, specifically from areas of hair near the base of the tail. Horse hair is obtained from specialized manufacturers who have a long-term relationship with horse breeders. The hair is collected either from tails that have already been clipped or from horses that have their tails clipped for other reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>After the hair is collected, it is thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, dust and excess grease. The hair is then sorted and selected according to length and quality. High quality bow hair has a uniform thickness and good elasticity.<\/p>\n<p>The hairs are then bundled in a certain number and attached to a metal rod called a &#8220;frond&#8221;. The frond, in turn, is attached to the bow. The hair is then brought to the desired tension by clamping the bow in a special holder. This gives the bow its characteristic light resistance, which allows it to produce the sound of stringed instruments.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that the use of horse hair for bow hair is a long-standing tradition, as horse hair can produce a high-quality sound due to its specific properties, such as elasticity and grip on the strings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1953\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1953\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><svg class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 384.662V127.338c0-17.818 21.543-26.741 34.142-14.142l128.662 128.662c7.81 7.81 7.81 20.474 0 28.284L34.142 398.804C21.543 411.404 0 402.48 0 384.662z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><svg class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">How long does it take to build a new string instrument?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1953\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1953\"><p>The time needed to build a stringed instrument can vary greatly and depends on several factors.

This includes selecting and preparing the wood, shaping and carving the top, back and sides, making and fitting the fingerboard, varnishing and fine tuning.<\/p>\n<p>2) Viola: The construction of a viola can take a similar amount of time as a violin. The difference lies in the dimensions and proportions of the instrument, which must be adapted to the larger size of the viola.<\/p>\n<p>3) Cello: Building a cello requires more time due to its size and complexity. A cello can take several months to a year to build, depending on the care and detail we put into the instrument.<\/p>\n<p>We often work on several instruments in parallel, which in turn takes more time.

overriding principle in any restoration is to protect and preserve the original. We restore your instrument after damage and impairments of all kinds and correct faults that have occurred during previous interventions.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to our extensive experience of working on historical instruments, we can quickly identify damage and improper modifications and repair them professionally to the highest standard.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of appropriate damage, we can take a &#8220;minimally invasive&#8221; approach and thus preserve the instrument both visually and in terms of its potential for value appreciation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e67bb5a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"e67bb5a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-590c1ec elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"590c1ec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Restoration can also be useful for tonal reasons: For example, arching changes over time due to high tensions in the instrument.<\/p>\n<p>A typical case is a drop on the bass bar side due to a bass bar that is too weak. Correcting the arching can allow the instrument to vibrate more freely again and result in enormous sound improvements. For this purpose, we also have techniques that we have developed ourselves and have tried and tested over many years, which go far beyond the classic correction using a plaster bed.<\/p>\n<p>However, this is only a small part of our repertoire that can be used for complex restorations.

Typically, the wood undergoes a seasoning period of 5 to 10 years to minimize its moisture content, ensuring enhanced stability and resonance.<\/p>\n<p>2) Maple (Acer): Maple is often used for the back, sides and neck of stringed instruments. Commonly, the wood is seasoned for a minimum of 5 years, and often longer, to optimize its stability and acoustic properties.<\/p>\n<p>3) Ebony (Diospyros): Ebony is often used for fingerboards, chinrests and pegs. This type of wood is notably dense and is often employed directly in instrument fabrication without the need for seasoning.<\/p>\n<p>The duration of seasoning can vary based on wood type, luthier&#8217;s preference, and the specific crafting method employed. The goal of seasoning is to adjust the wood&#8217;s moisture content, ensuring it remains resilient and free from warping or fractures during the instrument-making process. It also allows the wood to develop and mature its acoustic properties, which can lead to a better sound of the instrument.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1382\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1382\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><svg class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 384.662V127.338c0-17.818 21.543-26.741 34.142-14.142l128.662 128.662c7.81 7.81 7.81 20.474 0 28.284L34.142 398.804C21.543 411.404 0 402.48 0 384.662z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><svg class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Where do bow hairs come from and how are they treated?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1382\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1382\"><p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 1rem;\">The hairs usually come from horses&#8217; tails, specifically from areas of hair near the base of the tail. Horse hair is obtained from specialized manufacturers who have a long-term relationship with horse breeders. The hair is collected either from tails that have already been clipped or from horses that have their tails clipped for other reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>After the hair is collected, it is thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, dust and excess grease. The hair is then sorted and selected according to length and quality. High quality bow hair has a uniform thickness and good elasticity.<\/p>\n<p>The hairs are then bundled in a certain number and attached to a metal rod called a &#8220;frond&#8221;. The frond, in turn, is attached to the bow. The hair is then brought to the desired tension by clamping the bow in a special holder. This gives the bow its characteristic light resistance, which allows it to produce the sound of stringed instruments.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that the use of horse hair for bow hair is a long-standing tradition, as horse hair can produce a high-quality sound due to its specific properties, such as elasticity and grip on the strings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1383\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1383\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><svg class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 384.662V127.338c0-17.818 21.543-26.741 34.142-14.142l128.662 128.662c7.81 7.81 7.81 20.474 0 28.284L34.142 398.804C21.543 411.404 0 402.48 0 384.662z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><svg class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">How long does it take to build a new string instrument?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1383\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1383\"><p>The time needed to build a stringed instrument can vary greatly and depends on several factors.

This includes selecting and preparing the wood, shaping and carving the top, back and sides, making and fitting the fingerboard, varnishing and fine tuning.<\/p>\n<p>2) Viola: The construction of a viola can take a similar amount of time as a violin. The difference lies in the dimensions and proportions of the instrument, which must be adapted to the larger size of the viola.<\/p>\n<p>3) Cello: Building a cello requires more time due to its size and complexity. A cello can take several months to a year to build, depending on the care and detail we put into the instrument.<\/p>\n<p>We often work on several instruments in parallel, which in turn takes more time.

Typically, the wood undergoes a seasoning period of 5 to 10 years to minimize its moisture content, ensuring enhanced stability and resonance.<\/p>\n<p>2) Maple (Acer): Maple is often used for the back, sides and neck of stringed instruments. Commonly, the wood is seasoned for a minimum of 5 years, and often longer, to optimize its stability and acoustic properties.<\/p>\n<p>3) Ebony (Diospyros): Ebony is often used for fingerboards, chinrests and pegs. This type of wood is notably dense and is often employed directly in instrument fabrication without the need for seasoning.<\/p>\n<p>The duration of seasoning can vary based on wood type, luthier&#8217;s preference, and the specific crafting method employed. The goal of seasoning is to adjust the wood&#8217;s moisture content, ensuring it remains resilient and free from warping or fractures during the instrument-making process. It also allows the wood to develop and mature its acoustic properties, which can lead to a better sound of the instrument.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1842\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1842\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><svg class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 384.662V127.338c0-17.818 21.543-26.741 34.142-14.142l128.662 128.662c7.81 7.81 7.81 20.474 0 28.284L34.142 398.804C21.543 411.404 0 402.48 0 384.662z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><svg class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Where do bow hairs come from and how are they treated?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1842\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1842\"><p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 1rem;\">The hairs usually come from horses&#8217; tails, specifically from areas of hair near the base of the tail. Horse hair is obtained from specialized manufacturers who have a long-term relationship with horse breeders. The hair is collected either from tails that have already been clipped or from horses that have their tails clipped for other reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>After the hair is collected, it is thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, dust and excess grease. The hair is then sorted and selected according to length and quality. High quality bow hair has a uniform thickness and good elasticity.<\/p>\n<p>The hairs are then bundled in a certain number and attached to a metal rod called a &#8220;frond&#8221;. The frond, in turn, is attached to the bow. The hair is then brought to the desired tension by clamping the bow in a special holder. This gives the bow its characteristic light resistance, which allows it to produce the sound of stringed instruments.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that the use of horse hair for bow hair is a long-standing tradition, as horse hair can produce a high-quality sound due to its specific properties, such as elasticity and grip on the strings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1843\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1843\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><svg class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 384.662V127.338c0-17.818 21.543-26.741 34.142-14.142l128.662 128.662c7.81 7.81 7.81 20.474 0 28.284L34.142 398.804C21.543 411.404 0 402.48 0 384.662z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><svg class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">How long does it take to build a new string instrument?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1843\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1843\"><p>The time needed to build a stringed instrument can vary greatly and depends on several factors.

This includes selecting and preparing the wood, shaping and carving the top, back and sides, making and fitting the fingerboard, varnishing and fine tuning.<\/p>\n<p>2) Viola: The construction of a viola can take a similar amount of time as a violin. The difference lies in the dimensions and proportions of the instrument, which must be adapted to the larger size of the viola.<\/p>\n<p>3) Cello: Building a cello requires more time due to its size and complexity. A cello can take several months to a year to build, depending on the care and detail we put into the instrument.<\/p>\n<p>We often work on several instruments in parallel, which in turn takes more time.

specialize in working out the tonal potential of your instrument and adapting it optimally to you as a musician.<\/p>\n<p>Each instrument has an individual statics, which is influenced by the construction and position of the bridge, soundpost and fingerboard and by the tuning weight of the strings. Only when all components work together optimally can the instrument vibrate and sound perfectly.<\/p>\n<p>This complex interaction is based on clearly formulated physical relationships; it is not necessary to rely on a vague &#8220;gut feeling&#8221; when working.<\/p>\n<p>We have thoroughly investigated the principles of this system in cooperation with experts and using state-of-the-art measurement technology. Not only can we apply the knowledge gained in this way with the utmost precision, but we can also implement individual preferences, e.g. for timbre and response. We have already implemented this highly precise sound adjustment many times for and with musicians in the field.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d5eea13 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"d5eea13\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d7f794 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4d7f794\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In the context of restorations, we had many opportunities to examine historical instruments and to analyze old techniques, especially in the area of varnish work and construction, and to understand them in their historical context.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, we are now able to apply many of the old masters&#8217; reacquired skills and build instruments that come close to the great models in most respects.<\/p>\n<p>We can describe very precisely why one instrument sounds outstanding and another does not.<br \/>\nModern measurement technology enables us to take into account and implement the decisive design features, such as the resonance behavior of the top and back, during construction.  This means that the sound can be planned with the utmost reliability.  <\/p>\n<p>The outstanding tonal qualities of the instruments of the old masters can be achieved in a targeted and repeatable manner. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s no coincidence that we haven&#8217;t had a sonic disappointment with our newbuilds for many years.<\/p>\n<p>Our experience with old and much-played violins, violas and cellos enables us to predict how a new instrument will develop over time.

Typically, the wood undergoes a seasoning period of 5 to 10 years to minimize its moisture content, ensuring enhanced stability and resonance.<\/p>\n<p>2) Maple (Acer): Maple is often used for the back, sides and neck of stringed instruments. Commonly, the wood is seasoned for a minimum of 5 years, and often longer, to optimize its stability and acoustic properties.<\/p>\n<p>3) Ebony (Diospyros): Ebony is often used for fingerboards, chinrests and pegs. This type of wood is notably dense and is often employed directly in instrument fabrication without the need for seasoning.<\/p>\n<p>The duration of seasoning can vary based on wood type, luthier&#8217;s preference, and the specific crafting method employed. The goal of seasoning is to adjust the wood&#8217;s moisture content, ensuring it remains resilient and free from warping or fractures during the instrument-making process. It also allows the wood to develop and mature its acoustic properties, which can lead to a better sound of the instrument.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-4252\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-4252\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><svg class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 384.662V127.338c0-17.818 21.543-26.741 34.142-14.142l128.662 128.662c7.81 7.81 7.81 20.474 0 28.284L34.142 398.804C21.543 411.404 0 402.48 0 384.662z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><svg class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Where do bow hairs come from and how are they treated?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-4252\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-4252\"><p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 1rem;\">The hairs usually come from horses&#8217; tails, specifically from areas of hair near the base of the tail. Horse hair is obtained from specialized manufacturers who have a long-term relationship with horse breeders. The hair is collected either from tails that have already been clipped or from horses that have their tails clipped for other reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>After the hair is collected, it is thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, dust and excess grease. The hair is then sorted and selected according to length and quality. High quality bow hair has a uniform thickness and good elasticity.<\/p>\n<p>The hairs are then bundled in a certain number and attached to a metal rod called a &#8220;frond&#8221;. The frond, in turn, is attached to the bow. The hair is then brought to the desired tension by clamping the bow in a special holder. This gives the bow its characteristic light resistance, which allows it to produce the sound of stringed instruments.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that the use of horse hair for bow hair is a long-standing tradition, as horse hair can produce a high-quality sound due to its specific properties, such as elasticity and grip on the strings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-4253\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-4253\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><svg class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 384.662V127.338c0-17.818 21.543-26.741 34.142-14.142l128.662 128.662c7.81 7.81 7.81 20.474 0 28.284L34.142 398.804C21.543 411.404 0 402.48 0 384.662z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><svg class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">How long does it take to build a new string instrument?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-4253\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-4253\"><p>The time needed to build a stringed instrument can vary greatly and depends on several factors.

This includes selecting and preparing the wood, shaping and carving the top, back and sides, making and fitting the fingerboard, varnishing and fine tuning.<\/p>\n<p>2) Viola: The construction of a viola can take a similar amount of time as a violin. The difference lies in the dimensions and proportions of the instrument, which must be adapted to the larger size of the viola.<\/p>\n<p>3) Cello: Building a cello requires more time due to its size and complexity. A cello can take several months to a year to build, depending on the care and detail we put into the instrument.<\/p>\n<p>We often work on several instruments in parallel, which in turn takes more time.
