Saxophone Repair Topic: Example of Original Lacquer on Buescher Big B (info specific to Big B)

Saxophone repairman Matt Stohrer of www.StohrerMus... went ahead and made a video that might help a hundred people ever with this quick installment of Saxophone Repair Topic. The Buescher Big B has a unique engraving pattern that wears a little different than most horns, especially combined with the lacquer's tendency to start speckling. Therefore it can be hard to figure whether you have an original lacquer example or not when they are really pristine, since they hardly ever look like that unless they are actually in fact RElacquered. This horn is an example of what an extremely good condition original lacquer Buescher Big B looks like.

Beautiful horn! Amazingly crisp engraving for a horn of that vintage, and such a lovely golden color to the lacquer now. My 400 is jealous, cosmetically anyway!

Yes, nice to see a new video. I missed it. And what a good quality. Did you change your camera ? Very very pleasant. Thank you Matt 🤩🥰

Thanks! All of the handheld or tripod stuff I do with my phone, which is currently a Google pixel 6a. I put this in the highest possible quality (4k, 60fps) because of the detail in the engraving, but if I do one of my typical 20 minute long videos in that quality it would take me over a day to upload it, so I don't always.

@@StohrerMusic thank you. A very nice saxophone 🎷

In my opinion, the Buescher Big B has the most beautiful stock engraving that's ever been put on ANY instrument.
