Comments from World-Class Violinists
"Scott, this is an excellent violin! Can I buy it?"
Gidon Kremer

"When Nigel Kennedy broke a string on his Del Gesu violin during
the concert, he borrowed my Scott Cao violin. It sounded just as
good as the Guarneri."

"My Scott Cao violin was used interchangeably with the Stern ex
Panette del Gesu while recording my latest CD."

"Scott, I can't believe a new violin sounds so good. I like it
very much. Congratulations!"
Byung Woo Kim
Concert Master - San Jose Symphony Orchestra
"Ninety-eight percent of my students play on Cao made
instruments and bows... Other professional have been amazed at
the quality of sound projected and then absolutely drop their
jaws at the prices. I can, with confidence, recommend the 850
series to anyone. Professional or student of any level."
Peter F. Merlin

"They are wonderful instruments, sounds great, and are
applauded by teachers."
Jean Stucky
Suzuki School of Music
"They are wonderful products. We will sell more of these
instruments and let more people know about them."
Carl Applebaum
Violin Shop Owner
"Beautiful handiwork, great sound, reasonably priced."
Sing-tung Chiu
Violin Instructor in San Fransisco
"I've been fortunate to have recently purchase a '1734
Diable' model, Master Made by Scott. Made in 2013 it still
looks and plays wonderfully more than 10 years later. My
teacher, a symphony concert master, was astounded how well
it plays. I did not tell her what it was until after my
first lesson with it. I had to reveal it when she marveled
how much my tone had improved. She likes it so much she
insists we alternate violins during the lessons. Thank you,
Scott, for making a masterpiece."
