Contra Bass in F, a=440, laminated birch, direct blow. Paetzold’s unique instruments are based on the principle of a cranked wooden organ pipe. This new design makes use of a knick head joint so that the player can play direct blow. It is not only the unconventional yet attractive appearance of these instruments that causes intrigue – the sound throughout their two octave range is very powerful and the large key pads allow for them to be played by enthusiasts with even the smallest of hands.

3 part construction, with spike, 2 octave chromatic range F2- G4, size (without spike) 155 cm, height of the air column ca. 172 cm, 2 pitch plates, normally played whilst seated. Case included.
