If you stop by youll find out that Özgürs talents make the best sounds around the neighbourhood I believe. Ive personally been playing one of his violins which I certainly enjoy the collaboration with. Though never been in a bad situation with my violin he always cares my instrument properly. Ive been playing now for almost 4-5 years getting the results I like on an instrument such as rounded fine sound quality, stability and color changes. And not to mention the nicest chitchats we have whenever I visit the atelier :)

I bought my violin back in 2018 from Ozgur Tumcelik. It has a wonderful sound and it responds so well to the me, allows me to play music how i want to hear it. I have been playing with it in solo, orchestral and chamber music concerts, it really fits well into any kind of sound you expect. He also changed my bow hairs and did repairs. He is a really kind and professional person, his work is precise and clean.

Ozgur is an A quality Luthier. His instruments are very well set. I highly recomend his instruments.as a violist I especially recomen his violas. I very much like the dark sounds of the violas.He is also always very kind. great with his feedbacks.

I bought my viola in 2017 from Özgür Tumcelik. I have been playing with his viola in orchestral and solo concerts since then. It has a warm, resonant sound as well as easy to play. I also asked for repairs and bow hair change. His work is professional, neat and he is using top quality material.

Ozgur is a wonderful violin maker and person. Some of my students bought violins from him. The tone of his violins are generally warm, deep and powerful as well. You can rely on his work.

Hi, i’m a violin teacher from Turkey. Three of my students play on Ozgur Tumcelik’s violin. His violins really allow my students to do what they want it to do. His violins has a good mixture of that qualities: power, clarity, balance, evenness. With correct measurements, warm sound and good conditions my students (and of course me☺️) are really happy with this violins.

For about 10 years, Ozgur has been maintaining and repairing my cello (J. Altricher, 1894). He is a very careful and attentive luthier. Many of my friends also play his violin and viola. He is an idealistic luthier.

Özgür Tümçelik was always doing the routine maintenance and repair of my violin, precisely. He always uses qualified material and works so tidy, and he is also friendly and honest person against his customers. I dont know if Ill find a luthier I can trust as much. Additionally he was one of the best luthier in Istanbul.

One of the best up and coming luthiers in Chicago! Check him out.

Prompt, knowledgeable, and friendly service! Thanks again, Ozgur.

It is sad to hear Tumcelik moved his workshop to USA. Especially, his violins and violas were almost first choice of the musicians here. I am sure it will be the same for his new place...

Özgür Tümçelik produced my daughters violin years ago. The violin produced by Özgür is a violin of his mastery.Özgür Tümçelik produced my daughters violin years ago. The violin produced by Özgür is a work of his mastership.
