I think my heart just stopped.
I’m not doing it. I’m just doing the pochette. I was going to ask him about building a lefty viola like that, but I would rather not do something like that sight-unseen. I do like him though, and I’m quite happy to get the pochette from him.
But someday, a carved gamba-shaped lefty viola Will Be Mine …
And it won’t have a godddamned wolf on the G on the D, either.
