Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+
Schüler seines Vaters Johann B., dessen Geschäft er 1856 übernahm. Er
war ein sehr tüchtiger Geigenmacher, der u. A. für ein nach Stradivari gebautes
Quartett, dessen guter und starker Ton auffiel, im Jahre 1873 die Verdienst-
Medaille erhielt. Er baute auch verschiedene andere Saiteninstrumente, von
denen namentlich seine Guitarren sehr beliebt waren. Als in den sechziger
Jahren die Zither populär wurde, verlegte er sich ganz auf den Bau dieses Instruments
und brachte es darin bald zu grossem Rufe.
