Tony Johnson, lute maker
"I did the three year course in violin making and repair at Newark School of Violin Making between 1979 and 1982. I returned to England where I continued making and repairing violins. Also, my interest in playing the classical guitar and the lute, particularly the 13 course Baroque lute led me to making many classical guitars and eventually lutes."
