The Rudy CCC is modeled on a horn owned by Bob Tucci. I believe it was built in the 1920s. I got a chance to play the original a few years ago when I was in Munich at Bob's shop. It is a great playing old horn. The early Rudy versions did have some intonation problems, but those have been worked out. They seem to be real winners now.
