Wheatstone 48 key treble EC

[SteveS]

For sale

--------

Wheatstone 48 key treble English Concertina - s/n 28103

Ebony ended.

5 fold bellows.

Serviced 2.5 years ago by Steve Dickinson (Wheatstone & Co.).

Steel reeds.

Tuned concert pitch.

Original Wheatstone case.

 

This is a top quality concertina from the Wheatstone golden period.

Plays amazingly well, lightening fast action and reeds, wonderfully balanced, and is in superb well-maintained condition.

 

Bellows are in wonderful original condition, and appear never to have never been repaired.

 

All-in-all this is a nice clean instrument.

 

This was my main instrument until I got a Wheatstone Aeola tenor-treble - so I'm afraid it must go to a new home where it will be loved.

I'll be very sorry to see it go.

 

Please PM me for details, more photos, to arrange to come see/play it.

I'm based in Teesside, England.

 

Steve

 

PS a donation will be made to the forum if sold via the forum.

PPS The instrument may also be auditioned via Skype at a mutually convenient time - please advise.

Any takers?

I'll give it 'til Monday, then it's off to eBay.

I'd rather it went to an enthusiast on this forum rather than potentially a collector.

I thought about keeping this, but I really must trim the herd I've decided.

So I'm readvertising.

Any takers?

I'll accept £1800 for it (and of course I'll make an appropriate donation to this site).
