  • what a wonderful lady!

  • @emfolla

    Also, if you check her website, you'll see that she outsourced some of the work to three other Toronto luthiers, so she's not keeping all of the gross profit either.

  • @emfolla

    Don't forget: that's $900,000 gross. You'd have to subtract the cost of materials, tools, rent, utilities, marketing, etc., which can be substantial. But yes, it sounds like she makes a decent living now, and probably more than most artists.

  • GREAT INTERVIEW.

  • i love how she is so amazingly humble

    

  • @emfolla Did you mean the 30,000 or the 900,000? hahahah

  • She is the queen of all makers! She will be at the montreal guitar show this summer...

  • Congratulations Linda. Nice piece. B Petros

  • 30 guitars X $30,000 = $900,000 Wow, that's more than most working jazz musicians can make.

  • Agenda goes Home Shopping Network?

    Honestly, I think artist profiles would be nice, wonder if this is a pilot/something I haven't noticed before.

  • Great interview.  Manzer's guitars are exquisite.
