Review: Very Good Musical Saw - I really like this musical saw. Most of the time, I play on regular 26" hardware store (i.e., not exclusively musical) saws. While those regular saws are perfectly playable, this Bahco Stradivarius is worlds apart in terms of range and especially sustain. I like that this saw has teeth (so it still looks like a real saw) but they are not pointed or sharpened. The blade appears to be coated with a layer of clear varnish or polyurethane to protect the steel from oxidation, which is a smart feature. This is a nice looking saw as much as it is a nice playing one. Responding to the earlier reviewer's claim that this saw is too stiff to make the s-bend, that is really not true in my experience of this saw. The problem experienced by the earlier reviewer was probably the newbie mistake of trying to make way too much s-bend (it only takes a very little bit to make the saw play). Perhaps the only drawbacks to this saw are that it does not include any accessories, especially a case (the comparable Wentworth baritone musical saw is available in a package deal that includes the saw, case, bow, bow case, rosin, and cheat) and there is not a nail hole in the narrow end, making it tough to attach a standard cheat to this saw.
Review: You saw me play - Great instrument. It has a very rich sound. I started off playing a 26" Great Neck. It did we'll, but the sound, and the range of the Stradivarius is far superior. I can see how this was made as an instrument versus a tool. You won't go wrong with this saw. On another "note", this is a Snap-On product. The BAHCO brand was purchased by Snap-On in 1999 as a sub-brand of Sandvik Saws and Tools. But the original creation process is in place, and the product is the same as the original distribution.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What about a case for this?**
A: You can get the case for BAHCO 296 for $25.88 at https://musicalsaw.com/catalog. I got itChinh Van Phan.

**Q: how many octaves can be played on this saw?**
A: I'm still a newer saw player and I can get 3

**Q: Does it have pickups ( as in "Electric Saw" )........? * ? * ?**
A: No pickups. A saw is very, very loud. Most of the time I can play it anywhere and be heard. If you need a little kick just use your favorite mic on a boom stand.

**Q: I don’t see a hole on top of it how would I attach my musical saw handle?**
A: You are correct, there is no way to use a "screw on" handle with this saw.  I looked at a couple websites and found a handle attached to a block with a slot at the end of the block.  The slot slides over the end of the saw (nice and snug) and that way you can bend the blade easily without relying on your finger tips.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is an incredible instrument!
*by M***N on May 24, 2013*

Great high quality instrument with the rich sound, easy to operate - exactly what I was looking for! I've been playing several saws - different sizes and different color of sound, this one is definitely my favorite. The shipping was on time. I would highly recommend this instrument to anyone interested in buying a real "musical beast".
