For sale is this amazing condition Wheatstone Aeola . Its a 56 key with gilt fittings, steel reeds, 5 fold bellows with not a crack no crazing nothing missing just like it left wheatstone yesterday. Serial number is 25225 ( 1911 ) its a model 18. Its measures 6 1/2 inches across the raised ends The reeds are like new and it sounds great. There is a stamp on the inside M. Martin 245 William St, Perth , WA. One of the reed pans is pencilled 522 would indicate that it was originally( or later ) tuned to New Philharmonic Pitch and its very much in tuner with my guitar tuner. A few keys are a little stickey from lack of playing but that easy fixed up. Comes with original Wheatstone brown case with needs some attention even has the original key.
