cambridge, uk
My name is Rod Ward and I have been a professional violin, viola and cello maker since 1976. I use traditional techniques to hand craft high quality instruments from the finest materials. I make my instruments in the style and finish of the old masters. My instruments are owned by professional players, students and amateurs alike. I have a website www.wardviolins.com with information about my instruments and my work. There is also an informative photo essay about the process of making a viola on the site. To contact me: email : rodwardviolins@gmail.com telephone : +44 (0) 1763 852 377 www.wardviolins.com Please note my old e-mail address : ward@ward violins.com no longer works and I cannot be contacted using it.
