Testimonial

I’ve been playing a Jonathan Cooper Signature Model violin for six years now, and it continues to amaze me every time I pick it up. It’s perfect for both acoustic and amplified performances as well as studio recordings. The violin has great balance: a powerful, warm low end along with clarity and brightness, a combination that is rarely found. I highly recommend Jonathan Cooper’s instruments to anyone and everyone.

I’ve known Jon Cooper for thirty years. During that time he has become one of my absolute favorite violinmakers. Every instrument he makes has its own unique look and feel about it. Because he’s a musician, he truly knows how to make each instrument’s voice pure and strong. It’s no wonder that so many accomplished musicians are playing his violins!
