  • While rental season still is in full swing, our luthiers have been finding time to work on some unique restorations.

  • This cello is in for restoration. It had a spruce veneer glued under the center seam the length of the top. Due to this bad reinforcement the top arch was substantially deformed making the arch flat across the bridge area of the top. The shadows across the plaster cast make this clearly visible. #restoration #cello #luthier #worklesssoundbetter #whatsonyourbench #woodworking #violin #viola #detailsmatter

Joe obtained degrees in Communication Sciences and Disorders, and Music Performance from Penn State. He has studied viola performance extensively under his primary university professor Tim Deighton, and Philadelphia based Adriana Linares. In his final years of study at Penn State, Joe acquired a Balmforth viola and was inspired by the craftsmanship of the instrument to enter the field of making.

Moving forward he hopes to maintain a high level of performance and pedagogy while embarking on a new and exciting career path. https://trianglestrings.com/our-team/
  • This is our violin torture rack! This medieval looking device allows us to make arching corrections before we pour a plaster cast. It looks scary, but it's all part of the healing process.

  • We are always happy to hear from Manny Capote about outreach and impact abroad. We have high product turnover here at Triangle Strings and we do our best to minimize waste in as effective a manner as possible. When we get quality strings that still have life in the we send them out with Manny. Here's a photo of some young professionals Escuela Elemental de Música "Paulita Concepcion" working with our product in Cuba #trianglestrings #tristrings #outreach #reuse #giveback #supportlocal #worklesssoundbetter
  • Here is an example of arching corrections done recently at our shop. The treble side F-hole had become wildly distorted from a previous repair, and has been slowly coaxed back to where it should be.
