"I have the distinct pleasure of performing on a 2011 William Stapp violin.  I commissioned this instrument and would urge my professional violinist colleagues in search of a fine concert instrument to do the same.  Mr. Stapp's experience, pedigree, and obsessive attention to detail yields an exceptional instrument.  The tone is rich and complex.  It has a clarity and projection rarely found in other instruments I have tried over the years.  The instrument is extremely responsive and allows great nuance. Whether performing solos, chamber music, or symphonic repertoire, his violin is an absolute delight to play."
