Reading the testimonials, they should be a must listen. My daughter plays the viola. Her instrument was beautifully crafted in China. As anyone knows, there is a huge range of quality coming out of there. When one comes in that is right, they are a super buy, and can have a wonderfully open and resonant sound.
I just mention this, because one should not dismiss unfamiliar builders. The best racing bicycles are made from carbon fiber. The lugged steel bikes of yesteryear are gorgeous, but are not seriously considered for racing anymore.
I would love to hear one of the Luis and Clark instruments. At first thought one might think they are akin to the cheap plastic student instruments one can find in a catalog. Carbon fiber is nothing of the sort. It is light, ultra tough, and beautiful.
Seeing all the testimonials from professionals, it still remains a miracle to me that anything but wood would be considered acceptable. If you do get one, let us know how you like it.
