Growing up my families violins mostly came via Frank Williams at Victoria point. A retired minister he came to luithering later in life and was the goto guy on the Southside for violin repairs and secondhand violins. Indeed my favourite violin is a heavily repaired “German trade fiddle” from him (see my violins) and my sisters is a one of French heritage. I still meet people who remember him fondly. His passion was for inlay work and in particular work on building dulcimers. In time his business passed to his son Evan Williams, who today runs StringTech down logan way so its really nice to see generational traditions emerging in such a young country.
