conzertino Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 There are two nice 46-key Wheatstone MacCanns at ebay.com right now: This one and this one. Would they be Linotas? Pity again that I don't play duet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Hello I thought that the name Linota was specifically reserved for Wheatstone's Anglos.? Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Viehoff Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Not very tempting really. They are typical 46-key Maccans of typical Wheatstone quality, which means better than the basic Lachenals, but not special quality. They don't fetch special prices because 46-key Maccans are in over supply. The wooden ended one sold for over $810. We were not told if it is in concert pitch, or when it was last revalved and repadded, so assuming the worst on all that, then that is it is a fair price, not a bargain. Of course if it turns out that it needs no work, then it was a bargain. Personally I'd prefer to know than to gamble. The same is true of the metal ended one, and since he has put an absurd minimum bid of $2000 on it, it will remain unsold. The only 46-key Maccann that makes such a price is a rare Aeola.
