Gregory Eckes

I am very proud of my teachers and the training they have given me. I am deeply indebted to them for their help and guidance. I can only hope that my work will reflect their greatness.
I started my formal studies in 1980 with Lewis Main Jr. and Senior in Long Beach California. Their training came from the French school as taught to them by Renee Aerts who apprenticed at Mirecourt France. Many professionals in the Southern California area trusted the Mains to work on their valuable instruments. The Mains are noted for their exceptionally beautiful varnish and fine sounding instruments. My studies continued with them until 1990.

In 1989 Lewis Main Jr. suggested that I study with Ed Campbell at the Chimneys Violin Making School in Boiling Springs Pennsylvania. I studied with Ed in January 1990. Ed has won many awards for his violins and runs one of the best violin making schools in the country. He is very active in the Violin Society of America and is much sought after as a clinician.
