His sons Francesco and Om
His sons Francesco and Omobono assisted him, along with his helper Carlo Bergonzi. A pupil of Nicolo Amati, he made a total of 1100 instruments during his lifetime, but only 650 survive today. Although he also made mandolins, harps, guitars, cellos and violas, it is his violins that have served as a model for violin makers for the last 300 years. For ten points, name this craftsman whose instruments often sell for upwards of $1 million.
