Sofia treasures the secrets of a centennial Italian tradition of Violin Making and skillfully combines this historical legacy with contemporary innovations on varnishing techniques in this one-of-a-kind online course. This detailed and step by step course is a display of generosity from an accomplished violin maker eager to share her knowledge and to contribute to the advancement of our trade and to foster our sense of community.

Hello Sofia! Since Monday, each morning, I am sitting in the huge university library having a marathon of your Spirit Varnish Course, taking notes and watching your hands-movements closely!
And I enjoy everything so much!
I want to say hello and thank you so much for sharing everything and being authentic and funny and precise.
For my next theory block in the violin making school I am preparing a lecture about varnishing and how different ingredients behave in different mixtures.
For sure I will add some information from your course into it and obviously into the list of references in the end of my little school presentation.

PRIMING INSIDE course

Jaan Ader
Jaan Ader
Leggi Tutto
I was lucky finding Sofia's video courses, a plain coincidence at the right moment.
What I like the most was that the courses turned out to be very easy to follow along. Safely guided by maestra Sofia she creates an atmosphere of joy that leads to a curious fruitful learning, with progress in small steps.
I had heard and only vaguely know about inside priming using different techniques, but it was nothing I had done myself or being taught, so I had really no expectations.
Priming the inside does not only give it a neat look but also makes it more stable against humidity changes and helping the sound.
It is easy to recommend Sofia's courses to anyone wanting to improve their own varnishing skills.
In addition to Sofia's deep knowledge, you also get several generations of wisdom with her and her courses.

I have looked inside quite a few violins, both older and new.
None of them were finished on the inside.
I noticed that Sofia was finishing the inside of her violins before she glued the top table on.
Then I asked her about the process she uses and how it affects the sound.
With more than 25 years of experience in violin making, Sofia has developed a total violin finishing teaching package.
This part of the sealing not only goes inside to protect both the violin from age and the elements, but also enhances the sounds.
Many times the beauty of a violin will make the buyer pick your instrument up among others, as well as sound.
When you put these together, you have a win-win situation.

I've seen plenty of primings in forums and yours is certainly unique, since I never came across anything similar on the web.
Besides, your violin quality is proof enough of how well this priming works!

How to make a GLASS SCRAPER

Jaan Ader

Hi Sofia,
Now I have practiced making glass scrapers so that I can pretty easily break the glass to a straight scraper.
It was a "aha moment" when I watched your instruction movie once more and noticed that your glass is not touching the bench edge along the hole breaking length like mine but it just touches the bench edge at the file incision.
I will practise more...
Thank You!

BASSBAR-ABILITY

Hi Sofia, I bought Bassbar-ability right before I went to sleep and yesterday I watched the whole course in one big bite.
I will watch it many more times later.
I liked the course very much and it was liberating to hear that you fit the Bassbar without those wooden guides and without clamping the table to a metal ring whilst fitting the Bassbar.
You are very clear to follow with easy precise instructions in a warm atmosphere as usually.
I will try your method next time.
I'm very glad I bought the course.
