      It's pronounced beau (like as in beau-tiful) sher. beau-sher. At least that's what an older gentleman who used to work for the factory told me. I assume he knows what he's talking about! Jim

        Well, you are both right in a way. Americans pronounce it as Jim describes, HOWEVER, Buescher is a German name (Gus Buescher was of German heritage) and the first suggestion is closer to the German pronounciation. My source for this you ask...my father is from Germany. :)

          I've heard most people pronounce it Bush-er. Any way you chose to pronounce it, they're a GREAT horn!
