I am not certain what model number; but I believe they are still produced. It has thin metal face plate, mahogany veneered edges, and brown leather bellows. ( Steel reeds). You can see me using it on all my videos featured on this site ( which link to my youtube channel).

I briefly looked for your videos, but couldn’t find them. Could you give me a date or YouTube name ? Thanks

Before Stagi acquired Bastari, Bastari made 46-button Hayden concertinas. See picture, below, on the right:

 

 

Stagi started making 46-button Haydens, but the proportions were all wrong, because they didn’t have the original specifications, only working from a picture:

 

 

I believe there would be a considerable market for an instrument like the original Bastari 46-button Hayden. Mine (in the first picture, above) is 30+ years old and despite the bellows patches and replaced wood veneer still plays very nicely.

 

Any chance?

Thanks for showing the photo comparison !

The Bastari looks less bulky and the buttons seem smaller. Will be interesting to see what develops.
