Double Bass Show Your Wilfers

[Red Planet]

Lets see them.

Old or new Fully Carved, Hybrid, or Ply.

Just like to see some other Wilfers guys please.

I will post mine once I get to my external HD.

Here's mine with a 1956 Juzek label.

For us un-edu-kated folks here Eric......how do you tell that an instrument is from Wilfer, if it's got the Juzek label?

 

[Red Planet]

As I understand it if it's a Juzek and is a Carved or Hybrid, it's a Wilfer. If it's a Juzek Ply its not.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[kurt ratering]

heres one i had (labeled juzek), much like erics

 

[drurb]

I just couldn't resist. Here's me and a buddy with carved Juzeks in 1973. You get to guess which one is me.

 

[Nagrom]

The one with the bass & the bow!

The one with the bass & the bow!

Wow, you got it!

 

[BluesWalker]

Man, I was choosing the one with the f-holes!

Hmm... I figure I don't have any of those. I keep my distance from folks who think I do.

How quickly we go OT!

As I understand it if it's a Juzek and is a Carved or Hybrid, it's a Wilfer. If it's a Juzek Ply its not.

Yes, that's what I've read here and elsewhere. The plys were supposedly made by Lang.

This is what gets you posting again?!!!

My Wilfer...Sold under the conservatory name from Lemur.

 

[longfinger]

Do Framus basses count as Wilfers? Or is that a different family of Wilfer, who also made musical instruments?

Is that Peter Dominguez?

Been on the other side of the pond for a while. This seemed a good way to get back into the flow.

 

[fstasiak]

I got this one from Lemur in 2004.
