About the Maker
Andreas Preuss is a contemporary German-born luthier who went to Tokyo as a teenager to study to be a luthier under Soroku Murata. Preuss has since settled in Tokyo. He has great facility in making antiqued as well as straight-varnished instruments, with his copy of Paganiniās Gaurneri ādel GesĆ¹ā as an example of the former. When antiquing his instruments, Preuss embraces natural methods of staining the wood. āThis way, when my instruments get additional wear, it just looks natural,ā he explains.
