Wheatstone 57 Key Mccann Duet Unrestored For Sale Near Preston

[Ampico]

I have for sale an unrestored concertina by Wheatstone with 57 metal buttons plus air button. It is a McCann duet. Located near Preston (FY8 3JD) it will need a full overhaul. The ends are raised ebony and there are no cracks to the fretwork. Looking for an offer around £1200. I prefer the buyer to come and inspect. Call Kevin on 07784 713 866

The layout of the buttons on your duet is slightly different to 'normal' and the Wheaststone ledger's entry for this instrument says it is a 'special', so it would be helpfull if you could make a chart of the notes available.

There are several buttons stuck down on one end. I am worried about damaging something if I start messing about inside. I will see what I can do over the next day or so.

[Ampico]

I have reduced the price for any offers around £1000. Kevin
