Don Rickert Lutherie is one of the few lutheries in the world providing this service to fiddlers!

Don Rickert Lutherie can set-up any high-quality modern violin or fiddle in good condition to authentically replicate any period as far back to the mid-18th Century, which is about the time that the transition from the Baroque Violin to the Modern Violin (the type we use today) was complete. While the violin has not changed in 250 or so years, how it is set up and played has evolved constantly and radically. For example, the setup of an 18th Century “modern” fiddle is a lot different than that of today, as was the way it was held and played.

We also sell replica instruments such as 18th Century Pochettes (Dancing Master Kit Fiddles) and Civil War Era Cigar Box FiddlesDon Rickert Lutherie can set-up any high-quality modern violin or fiddle in good condition to authentically replicate any period as far back to the mid-18th Century, which is about the time that the transition from the Baroque Violin to the Modern Violin (the type we use today) was complete.
