Gabriel Lemböck Bass Restored by Lou DiLeone

[ctcruiser]

As I mentioned in a previous thread, I met Lou DiLeone who showed me several basses he had recently restored in his workshop.

Below is a link to photos I took of Lou with an Austrian bass by Gabriel Lemböck from the mid-1800's.

Lou is selling this bass along with his Prescott and a Juzek through his friend David Mix out of Branford, CT.

I will try to post some photos of the Juzek on my next visit. It is a dream to play.

Thanks for posting these, my Lembock label certainly seems dubious after seeing this.

Did he mention anything about this maker? Was it the name of a shop, or the name of just one maker?

My Label says Gabriel Lembock, I believe.

There is also a "GL" stamped on the back where the neck meets the body, and inside as well.

Thanks
