"I came because I wanted to buy a Parisian cello. I couldn't afford it, but Étienne kindly explained everything and gave us plenty of time to play it. The sound of the cello made by his father was excellent."

"Great advice and very attentive to the musician. I first came to have my bow rehaired. I also brought two other bows. He assessed both and pointed out that the second one wasn't of sufficient quality."

"I'm a huge fan of this luthier. Impeccable service, great advice and quality products. And even when I had an issue with my bow, since it was under warranty and the problem wasn't due to me or normal wear, the repair was free of charge."
