The Violin: A Study in Contradictions
 A violin is crafted of about 80 parts, together weighing in at little over one pound. It's a delicate
structure that is precisely engineered to withstand nearly 70 pounds of string tension. To the untrained
eye, all violins may look alike. To the expert, however, no two instruments are identical.
Today, Lewis
instruments are crafted in the same tradition as they were a century ago. We insist upon properly aged
premium wood for the most resonant sounding instruments, and still carefully hand adjust each instrument
to meet or exceed the critical tolerances established by the Music Educators National Conference, giving each
violin, viola, cello and bass that leaves our hands its unique sound and soul.
We call this process
"Stradjustment"; a patent, final adjustment procedure that guarantees every Lewis instrument lives up to its
fullest potential.
