luthier in Cleveland Area

I would heartily recommend Horst Uebel- Horst's Violin Shop 7650 W. Pleasant Valley, Parma- 440-842-5576. Horst is semi-retired but does excellent work at a decent price. He's kept my old Kay on the road for years now, and his setup is very playable, etc...

When I was at Cleveland Institute in the mid '80s we all went to a guy named John Leo Thomas in Willoughby. No idea if he's still around, but he was a straight shooter.
