Welcome to the web-site of LUTHERIA TESTI!

We invite you to come and take a closer look at the small but interesting world of violin making by James L. Testi, Professional Double bassist and luthier taught by Master French luthier Mr.Lucien André Ragot.

The principal characteristic that defines our luthier James Testi is his insesant search for perfection and symmetry in his artistic work, irrespective of whether one talks about a small student instrument repair or the commissioning of a new instrument.
For the construction of a new instrument, a task which may take several months. Our luthier personally chooses the best seasoned woods so as to obtain the best possible acoustic and aesthetic results. He also chooses the best ingredients for the varnish and the best season and time to apply it.
