Jonathan Springall - Head of workshop
Jonathan trained at the Newark School of Violin Making, initially attending a course in Baroque Instrument Making. Surrounded by violin making students he soon developed a love for fine violins, and extended his studies to include the full course in Violin Making and Repair.
Before managing the workshop here at Strings, Jonathan had built an excellent reputation in his own right for the restoration of both violin and mandolin family instruments. He has run a highly regarded workshop in Canada, and lectured part-time at the Newark School of Violin Making.
While he continues to make violins in his own time, at Strings he indulges his passion for restoring stringed instruments to prime aesthetic and playing condition.
