I am getting a new baritone. Is there anything to do for leather bellows maintenance? Armor All, neats foot, keep your cotton pickin' hands off dummy?

Is it a new to you vintage or a new instrument?

The leather on new bellows is treated already. I would say do nothing other than play the instrument.

the only thing Steve Dickinson recommends is a little boot polish applied carefully and gently.do not use neatsfoot oil.Dick Miles
