Ihr Egger-Team

Dear customers,

the time as come when we can see you all again! 

As of today we are open to visitors again, however we have to set some hopefully momentary restrictions. 

We have reduced opening hours: 10:00 to 16:00, from Monday until Friday.

However it is always possible to make an appointment outside these opening hours. We can receive up to three customers at the same time and therefore we highly recommend to make an appointment, in order to not let you down if you want to visit us spontanuously.
Our safety instructions regarding are presentend in German, English and French at our shop's entrance.

Best regards - stay healthy!

Your Egger team

Renaissance Sackbuts

 

The measurements of the STANDARD, HISTORIC and MDC sackbuts are identical; they are all reproductions of historical instruments. The bell is therefore in 4th position, which is historically the most common, and not in the usual 3rd position found on modern trombones. This proportional setup effects not only the acoustical functioning of the instrument, but also its sound quality.

The SLOKAR sackbuts, which have been developed together with Branimir Slokar and his Quartett, are designed to enable an easy and frequent change from the modern to the historical instrument. The shape of the bells and the diameters of the tubes are authentic at the essential points. The concept, however, has been altered so that the 3rd slide position corresponds now with the bell rim, as is usual for modern trombones.

STANDARD
Instrument in brass; bell entirely hand hammered; German silver (nickel silver) inner slides, chrome plated; sleeves decorated; garland and bell stay engraved.
HISTORIC
Instrument in brass; bell entirely hand hammered; brass slides, with chrome plating on request; all tubing except slides and sleeves made from hammered sheet metal with soldered seam according to historical examples; sleeves, garland and bell stay decorated and silver plated; the instrument is burnished by hand according to historical methods before it is polished.
MDC
Instrument in brass, richly decorated; bell entirely hand hammered; brass slides; all tubing except slides and sleeves made from hammered Nuremberg brass sheet metal with soldered seam according to historical examples; garland hand engraved; sleeves, garland and bell stay decorated and silver plated; flat bell stay riveted; slide stay soldered, hinged on the bass sackbut, all the remaining connections glued; the instrument is burnished by hand according to historical methods before it is polished.

 

The original instruments did not have tuning slides. However, we furnish our alto and tenor sackbuts with a tuning slide at the bell bow because it is both useful and easy to integrate into the design.

Through the slow working of the sheet brass and the directed use of historical production techniques, we are able to produce a similar material structure as is found in historical brass. This explains the clear differences in sound between MDC, HISTORIC, and STANDARD sackbuts despite sharing the same dimensions, and despite the use of historical production techniques on parts of the STANDARD model.

Pitch notations refer to a’=440 Hz.
