Currently based in Topeka, Kansas, bow maker Thomas Goering (b. 1957) has been making and repairing instruments and bows for over four decades, beginning with guitars in the 1970s. In 1989, Goering developed a passion for bow making while working in the Montana workshop of Mark Hollinger. Goering continued his training under William Salchow and David Samuels before joining Jerry Pasewicz’s prestigious Raleigh, North Carolina workshop. In 2005, Goering opened his own workshop in Topeka.
Goering’s craftsmanship has been recognized by multiple instrument making authorities.
