  1. Hi All! I’m at a largish shop, lots of customers coming through, lots of sales. What I have been running into is sales staff giving away workshop services as perks to clients. This in and of itself is not a problem, the luthiers get paid regardless, the problem is that front staff are: 1 desciding what the customer needs without asking the workshop. 2. Selling customers repair jobs based on the sales persons opinion, or what the customers thinks they need. Workshop staff is then expected to conform to what the sales staff promised the customer. I understand that sales is the department that is most “money adjacent” and therefore has their needs prioritized. I also understand that pleasing a customer, even if their request is a little bonkers, is of paramount importance. But isn’t this a little like a car salesperson talking about engine repair? “No problem! We can totally swap your Prius’ engine with a Ferrari!” ”What’s that? You have a flat tire? Well I’m gonna have the boys replace the axels, wheels, tires, and wiper blades. That will definitely fix it!” My actual questions would be: What has been people’s experience concerning who has the last word in situations like this? Has anyone had to deal with a similar situation with sales staff diagnosing instruments? Is this power structure common? Verboten? How could one convince the higher ups to put a stop to this? Needless to say I think anyone who doesn’t have a LOT of the right kind of training should ever try to determine what repairs would be appropriate. And “a little knowledge is a dangerous thing” is at play here. Thanks in advance.
  2. HI all, I just bought this lovely (I think) old fiddle from an auction and I'm hoping for some guidance. These are my pictures (took them this afternoon) and I do actually own this instrument and have it in hand. I have deliberately NOT shown the label, but there is one. The bow is fractional, maybe 1/2 or 3/4 and is unlabeled as far as I can see. http://flic.kr/s/aHsjUkk3Yu First, what do you think I have here? Age? Origin? What is the basis for your thinking? Second, I'm hoping someone can tell me what I'm getting myself into repair wise, and if it's worth doing. I have a fairly good idea of what needs to be done, but I'd like a second opinion from someone knowledgeable with no skin in the game. Thanks in advance. Enjoy the pix! MamaTorra
