A warm welcome to all the cello players who are visiting Adelaide for the 2nd Adelaide Cello Festival. I hope to see you there. I am sharing a display table with Hugh Withycombe from Canberra, at the exhibition / trade display area. I will be showing a number of cellos as well as a quartet of instruments I've made. There will also be a special offer available only during the Festival.

I'm pleased to present two new cellos I have recently made. Images of them are in the Gallery. They are both a Rogeri model. On one of them I used quilted maple for the back and ribs.

I've added some new images to the Gallery.

For all of us who just love a bargain.... guess what? Yes, I'm having a BIG SALE.... just ask me.
