Luthier's Workbench - Professional Software for Professional Luthiers

Luthier's Workbench extends the features found in Luthier's Journal to offer the professional luthier the means to record every aspect of their custom builds, repair jobs and related business activities.

While Luthier's Journal provides hobbyist and semi-professional builders the means to document every aspect of the instrument building process, Luthier's Workbench offers a far wider range of features to meet the additional needs of the professional luthier who offers repair services as well as custom built instruments.
