Plans

The Bosch plans

We are pleased to offer a set of plans for the Bosch hurdy-gurdy, drawn by Italian hurdy-gurdy master Marcello Bono. The plans are exquisitely drawn on two sheets and are very clear. A small booklet in English accompanies the plans, showing the details of construction (not step-by-step instructions), materials, the modes available on the keyboard of 12 keys, and the historical basis for the keybox design. Marcello is an excellent builder, player and researcher, and the plans reflect all three of these interests.

The price of the plans is $45. Shipping in North America is an additional $5. Shipping outside North America is $12. To order, please call or email us.

Other plans

We regret that we do not sell any of the plans for the instruments we build, with the exception of the Bosch plans.
