Story

Classical Strings USA was established in 2005. Since then Classical Strings USA has built up a family of very experienced craftsmen who are passionate about instrument making and restoring; they perform these duties to a very high professional level. Its founder, John Wu, was born in the Republic of China into a music family.He learned the skill of violin making at a very young age soon after winning an award for best violin sound quality in the Chinese National Violin Making Competition in China and received another award for sound and craftsmanship in the United States competition sponsored by the American Federation of Violin and Bow Makers. Mr. Wu Immigrated to the United States from China in the 1990’s and first studied violin restoration techniques in New York under the world renowned luthier Rene A. Morel. Later, he advanced his study at David Kerr Violins in Portland, Oregon and recently has been influenced in his making process and techniques by Maestro Andrew Dipper. In addition, he worked many years as a master luthier for Eastman Strings. With such an extensive and prolonged period of supervised study and work in the violin making field, John Wu has been able to achieve a remarkable degree of perfection for every instrument his company makes. He frequently holds craftsmanship classes and seminars at his company’s subsidiary factories, making sure the integrity of every step of the making process remains. He is persistent in achieving the correct level of quality control from the selection of the raw
materials to applying the varnish finish. These strict steps of quality control make Mr. Wu’s instruments stand out as superlative in a very
competitive market.Classical Strings USA offers a variety of instruments, from China, Italy, and Germany. Some are assembled and finished in the States.
