Actually, I do still have the Kapek.

cjakes8 - I have a oouple that would be good starters. Where are you located?
-
If I had the extra money it would go well in my square concertina corner.
-
I have a 35, 42, 48, 57 and 66. I still want an 80!

I'd never assume to be an authority but this appears to be a small Chemnitzer-type box, given the 3-row layout shown in the picture. For the same price or little more you can get an actual Chemnitzer or Bandoneon of good German lineage.

StevenTx, mainly for fooling around with. Brass is a different sound to steel.

Back when I first started playing, in addition to a Morse Baritone and a Jack, I had a brass-reeded Lachinal. Does anyone have a brass reeded EC that they'd be willing to part with for hot a princely sum?
Kind regards,
Rod

Bob Tedrow has one of his Baritones on consignment, as well.
-
Got it. Thank you, Daniel!
-
Ask Dowright about it also.

Looks like a Chemnitzer to me ...

Jeremy, get hold of Greg Jowaisas who is on C.Net. I just got a really nice 20b Jones from him and I know that he will likely have something that would fit your needs. He's well recommended by many folks, including me.
-
McBadger, if you could either give me the buyer's contact info or send him a msg for me, if he wants to part with it, I'd be interested in buying it back. Kind regards, Rod

I started on a Jack which I bought used. Quickly went to a Morse Albion. The price jump made me gulp but it was a far nicer instrument. Then I went to Crane duet. Oh well.
+1 on the sentiment that a good box will hold its value. But baritones won't be cheap. And as you catch the free-reed flu, it will just cost you more. Hey, it's only money, right?
Kind regards,
Rod

Peter, dd you sell your 35b Crabb yet?
-
Do any of our c.net members know of a repair/tuning shop in Japan? I recently sold a Macccan to a new player there and it was a bit out of tune when I sent it. Give all of the CITES fun to get it there, it would probably be better if it stayed in country.
Kind regards,
Rod

OK, I've purchased craneconcertina.net and will begin remaking the site.

Thanks, RAc. I hadn't seen this thread. I don't know that I want to pay min $200 for the name via an internet broker, so I think I'll restart the site under craneconcertina.net. Moving the content from the archive shouldn't be hard, or we can just redo it.
What do you think?
-
I was corresponding with ceemonster yesterday and it appears that Craneconcertia.com has gone into archive. Does anyone have contact info for Chris Bell, who had taken it over? I would gladly host it and keep it up, but would like to get hold of him for a proper transfer.
Kind regards,
Rod

Lynda, did you ever sell either of these?
KInd regards,
Rod

Both of these concertinas now have new homes! Donation on its way to c.net!

Does anyone know of one for sale?

Phil, you want a Pelican/Hardig IM2075. You can get it with or without foam,. Right around $50 last time I looked and a great deal. Sadly, the 48 key english and related < 7" are the best fit. Wish I could find one for a couple of my duets.
Kind regards,
Rod

I've seen CB Arnolds listed on Argentinian versions of sales sites. If it's Kusserow-like, the right hand will have the notes ascending in 1/2 tones down the rows starting at the upper button, (without added notes). Otherwise, there were some early attempts a Peguri fingering which is more like a C-system accordion.
Don't let that statement make you think that I know what I'm talking about. I have a few unisonoric bandoneons and Karl Oriwohl's self published book to guide me.
