Fs: Lachenal Baritone 35 Keys

[SteveS]

I am presently finishing off the restoration of a 35 key Lachenal Baritone English concertina.

 

Wooden ends, dark rosewood coloured, steel reeds.

 

This 'tina has undergone extensive restoration:

 

- tuned A440

- repaired damage to ends

- newly finished ends (French polish)

- new pads

- new valves

- new springs

- new dampers

- new bushings

- new end bolts and receiver plates

- new gaskets

- repaired bellows

- new bellows papers

- new thumbstraps

- deep clean of woodwork and metalwork.

 

Includes a case.

 

I should have this ready before the end of the year (sooner if required).

 

Serial number is 50020.

6 sided, 6 fold bellows.

 

Please PM me if interested.

In your list of details, you seemed to have left out what sort of reeds and the end material.

 

Since you didn't say, I would guess that the reeds are steel. And French polished ends would have to be wood, but what kind of wood?

I am in the market for a baritone right now. What sort of money are we talking, and where are you geographically?

I would surely be tempted if I only could afford it...

 

Good luck with the sale, Steve!

 

P.S.: You applied gold-on-black bellow papers from Dave Elliott, didn't you?

Yes you are right, the papers are from Dave Elliott.

You're telling me!

Here's a picture of the bellows papers.

Oh, these ones... I had been tempted to apply them instead of the "L" papers to my Lachenal as well...
