Autorenporträt
Born in 1956, Alfred Woll¿s interest in craftwork was awakened at an early age by his father and grandfather. Having discovered his passion for lutherie, he was eventually permitted to take the master craftsman¿s exam despite being self-taught and subsequently became one of the best-known mandolin makers both in Germany and beyond. Beside restoring historic mandolins, he builds reproductions of early instruments from Italian masters as well as modern mandolin family instruments of his own design.
