THE HISTORY
Our roots reach deep into the past. Because about 170 years ago, our great-grandfather laid the foundation for the family business with the construction of woodwind and brass instruments. In 1959, his son Josef moved to Burggrafenamt and began manufacturing and selling musical instruments at that time. Through his unique creativity, he created the first sounds of panflutes and ocarinas made by hand.
He continued this exquisite craftsmanship together with our father Georg and mother Maria, who nurtured the heritage with just as much passion. Later we, Alex and Manuel, also joined the family business - until today.
THE REPERTOIRE
Through our decades of expertise in instrument manufacturing, our products continue to impress with their exceptional quality and outstanding workmanship. In addition to traditional instruments such as panpipes and ocarinas, which are our origin, we have expanded our repertoire.
Guitars, ukuleles and kalimbas now proudly bear the "Plaschke Instruments" trademark with the new "Alp Gold" line and enrich the music world with their unique sound.
