History
Grand Rapids Violins, LLC was born out of a commitment to quality. In 2014, Kevin Flannery had been working as a luthier in Grand Rapids for 37 years, specializing in lower strings. In North Carolina, Matthew Noykos was working for Pasewicz String Instrument Company. Being a native of Michigan, Matthew decided to move back to the Grand Rapids area. The two luthiers agreed to combine their collective expertise and provide a first-class experience for musicians in West Michigan and the greater Midwest area. We love this business and truly enjoy the players we get to work with. To us, nothing is more satisfying than offering a quality product and seeing what it can do for a player. We are players ourselves and our approach to the craft comes from our understanding as players. We have 5o years of combined experience in our relentless drive towards excellence. Let us exceed your expectations.
