Guntram Wolf

Guntram Wolf is a maker of modern and historical woodwind instruments in Kronach, Germany.

His productions

He specializes in the modern Heckel (German) system bassoon but also makes a considerable number of historical instrument replicas of bassoons, oboes and clarinets, as well as child-sized models of the same instruments.

Innovations

Guntram Wolf has also developed a redesign of the contrabassoon, called the "Contraforte". The Contraforte has been received well in most countries but has a very small following in the United States, with less than a half dozen players of the instrument.

More recently he has developed a redesigned bass oboe, called the "lupophon".
