A good violin maker has to learn his craft for a longer period than it takes to learn to be a good violinist. The 'luthier' we're talking about here is a genius.

I saw a bit on tv recently about a violin constructed entirely of carbon fiber. They sell them for about 5 grand and professional violinists flock to them, because of their suprising quality. They use it for outside performances and for worriless traveling.

Have you tried outside of Germany,like Austria, Italy and France? There must be decent craftsmen in eastern Europe as well.
