Puck Lyraphone

Post by alang »

Just finished my latest project, an old German Puck Lyraphone. It was very rusty, string guard broken several times, split in the mandrel, missing horn and reproducer. With the help of Jean Paul Agnard I was able to complete it with replication horn and reproducer. I was surprised how well it plays, considering the basic cheap construction.
Happy :)
