    Here is my new pride and joy. I’ve had her for a little over a month now and the more I play her the deeper I’m falling in love. The luthier is Lukas Wronski. He is from Poland but is now living in Oklahoma. He has named this instrument “La Quinta De Swing”. My apologies in advance about the photo quality, I do need a new camera.

    Sean -
    Very nice instrument. Can you tell us any more about it? Is it standard violin dimensions? The neck/fingerboard looks a little wider to accomadate the 5 strings. Very nice looking wood on it.
    Anyway, congratulations on a fine instrument!

    It is bigger than a violin. I don't know the exact dimensions. Lukas told me but is was all metric. The neck is wider than most 5 strings. That is per my request. I do not like any compromising of string spacing. Here is a link to some better photos
