Musician and master designer of musical instruments
Immersed in the traditions of jazz, acoustic folk and blues, electrified rock and experimental music, Aceto has been active as a session player, touring musician and designer of musical instruments (Luthier) for over 30 years.
While playing music during his college years, his dissatisfaction with the amplified violins of the time led him to experiment with the design and construction of his own instruments.
Years of development and evolution have allowed Aceto to produce instruments of exceptional quality. His violins, mandolins and guitars are today in increasing demand by discerning musicians around the world, artists such as Jean Luc Ponty, Darol Anger, Matt Glaser, Tommy Malone , Jerry Goodman, Ritchie Havens, Irene Sazer, Ruben Blades, David Torn and many many others.
