Double Basses, Cellos & Violins

''Any man-made thing should be well made and durable; it should be ergonomic and fit for purpose; it should have brought no harm to anybody or anything; and it should evoke delight and lasting pleasure in use."

                                                             Kevin McCleod - Enjoying Life in the 21st Century.

Each instrument created by Benedict is as individual as the timber which he chooses.  Benedict works closely with the musician to achieve the perfect outcome for their requirements.

The instruments are supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity and continue to prove to be lifelong investments for the player.

Each instrument crafted in the Atelier is made with the traditional methods and materials.

The highest quality wood is sourced from Europe's finest tonewood cultivators.

After the wood is felled, dried and stored to mature, it is selected by Benedict and brought to Australia where it is again stored.

Vienna Kontrabass (5 or 4 string)

A new and distinctive model from Benedict Puglisi's line of double basses. The instrument is an exact model by Lembock, accurately copied to the finest detail and tested against the original.Gabriel Lembock was a Hungarian born Viennese instrument maker famous for his accurate and impressive copies of Viennese double basses and fine Italian instruments. His instruments were praised for their fullness of tone coupled with responsiveness. This bass features gamba corners and a flat back, as well as custom authentic Viennese wooden pegs and fittings. This is an exceptionally versatile bass. It can be set up as a 5 string or 4 string orchestral bass, or in traditional Viennese tuning. The bass has a rich, dark tone well suited to orchestral playing. This is the perfect instrument for a professional looking for something versatile and suited to all circumstances.


 

    *NEW YORK, NEW YORK*

International Jazz legend Christian McBride is now the proud owner of an original Benedict G. Puglisi Double Bass. This Bass landed in the USA early this month and is now being played by Christian. 

The 2012 Vincenzo Panormo carved back Bass was first trialed by Christian in Melbourne when he was a featured artist at the 2013 International Jazz festival.

It is truly an honour to have an original instrument with this amazing musician. We are sure that there are some amazing things to come from this relationship.
