Shen Double Bass


Established in 1989, Sam's beginnings as a violin maker began with his first violin shop in Windsor, Canada.  Since opening his first production facility in 1993, Sam has developed the talents of Suzhou's best woodworkers to produce fine stringed instruments.  Now with a large staff of makers and varnishers, Sam's philosophy carries forward to a new generation of violin makers.  Sam believes in hard work and dedication to the tradition of violin making, and adheres to traditional methods and materials throughout the violin making process.

Sam's goal is to make high quality instruments available to players of all levels, from student to professional.
