zimbotut Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 I have just found a lovely small Lachenal piccolo concertina,with rosewood ends 26keys, and 6 fold green bellows. It seems to be constructed to a higher than normal standard,and comes with a lovely rosewood/dark mahogany case.Andrew Norman had a look at it and tells me it is in ab/eb or thereabouts,and would,when tuned,make a very nice punchy box,which,using irish fingering,would play in Bb. .This would be a very interesting combination with flat pipes.It would also make a nice g/d box.It will cost me about £200/220 to have restored to peak condition.I also have a 30 key c/g Salvation Army Lachenal being tuned at present,these are always cracking boxes,although the fretwork is quite plain on them,so he must have had a soft spot for the SallyAnne.Both boxes will be for sale ,at the going rate,in the near future,and any enquiries are most welcome.

Chris Timson Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 and any enquiries are most welcome. Just a thought, but wouldn't the Buy/Sell forum be more appropriate for this posting? The Ab/Eb certainly sounds interesting. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
