Notes on this instrument

I have looked for an instrument like this for over 30 years.
This instrument and I have great plans together!

In the instrument gallery, you can find a picture of the contrabass together with my 1935 Buescher Aristocrat alto, to get a feel for the incredible size of this instrument. Also, you can see a picture of the neck and mouthpiece of the contrabass, together with a very special Buescher soprano. This is the saxophone that Christine Rall plays in the Raschèr Saxophone Quartet, that was gifted to her by Carina Raschèr: it was Carina’s one and only soprano that was built for her by Buescher, given to her by her father.
