Ken_Coles Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I think you will find a lot of interest here. We will see what everyone here has to tell us; I do remember a report on this project years ago. Ken
Cherepashka-harmonica Posted November 29, 2015 Author Posted November 29, 2015 (edited) the tool is then done through an intermediary. And this intermediary is not specifically given to the contacts of master Builder and Vice versa. Edited November 29, 2015 by Cherepashka-harmonica

MatthewVanitas Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Daniel, there appears to be an error in the URL you give, try this instead: http://www.concertina.info/tina.faq/reviews/rushayden.htm In case you can't access the link, here's the text: I have just seen the prototype of a new Hayden duet system concertina, made in Russia by a master bayan-maker. The instrument was shown to me by Brian Hayden, who was running the concertina drop-in sessions at Sidmouth on behalf of the West Country Concertina Players. But first, a couple of photos of the instrument provided to me by Brian:- Left hand end Right hand end Please bear in mind when reading this that I am not a Hayden (or indeed any sort of duet) player, and that I only had the chance to handle it for a few minutes. As you can see, the fretwork is unusual and attractive. It is a fairly heavy beast, but considering that is has 65 (sixty five!) buttons - twice the number of the average anglo - this seems pretty reasonable. The action feels smooth and high quality. Brian tells me it is based on the Jeffries action, so the maker has followed a good model. I was unable to look inside, but Brian showed me a picture of the reed plate. It seems that the maker has used bayan techniques to prduce this. As it happens I was unaware until now that bayan makers had their own techniques as distinct from those of Western accordion makers, but I now know different. The reed plate is one large sheet of metal, with the reeds riveted directly onto the metal sheet. In shape, the reeds are closer to concertina reeds rather than accordion reeds. The sound resembles that of accordion-reed based anglos - at the better end of those instruments, not dissimilar to the Morse Ceili anglo. It is pleasant and does not grate. Brian says that the bellows are made from accordion materials, and I have to say that they look the most unsatisfactory feature of the new instrument. Brian himself estimates that they are only likely to last a few years of hard playing, but after that they can be replaced with a decent set by one of the major concertina makers such as the Dippers or A. C. Norman. So, I have a caveat about the bellows, but the rest of the concertina looks a fine instrument. Brian himself was obviously very pleased with it, and no wonder. Now that Stagi have started making cheap Haydens again, and with this instrument coming onstream the stage seems set for an upsurge in the Hayden duet system. Here are some technical specifications, courtesy of Samantha Boorer (who was instrumental in setting up the connection between Brian Hayden and the Russian maker):- It measures 7" across the flats, has 65 buttons and weighs 4lb2oz. There are 30 buttons plus air on the left hand with a range from F (bottom space, bass clef), G, A, then fully chromatic to b' (middle line, treble clef), and 35 on the right giving a chromatic range from g (two ledger lines below treble clef) to d"' and then e"' (three ledger lines up off the top of treble clef). The first few instruments will be made of mahogany (solid not veneer). The retail price will it is hoped be initially US$2,000, plus shipping. For further information you can email Samantha Boorer. I'll send a forum message to another member here that should know a lot about this project.

David Barnert Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 This may be helpfui: http://www.concertina.info/tina.faq/reviews/rushayden.htm Daniel, there appears to be an error in the URL you give, try this instead: http://www.concertina.info/tina.faq/reviews/rushayden.htm In case anybody's wondering why Daniel's link failed: Notice the underline in his link extends just a little to the right of the right edge of the letters above it. Sure enough, there's a space character there that has become part of the link, encoded as %C2%A0. That's enough to make the link unreadable by browsers.
Cherepashka-harmonica Posted November 30, 2015 Author Posted November 30, 2015 JimLucas, Hello! Cherepashka is turtle) Welcome to my site about my instrument: www.smallaccordion.com
Stephen Chambers Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 черепашка - My Russian is limited and confused. Are you a bug or a turtle? I should maybe explain that Cherepashka (Cherepashka-harmonica = Гармошки-Черепашки) is also the name of a miniature Russian accordion Jim, and that Semyon has been making some of them recently, hence his nom-de-plume: Harmonica-Turtle
Don Taylor Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Cherepashka-harmonica: Are you planning to make some of the 65 button Haydens? That would be really interesting!
Cherepashka-harmonica Posted December 1, 2015 Author Posted December 1, 2015 Stephen, You are right. Don Taylor, yes, I'm planing to make some of the 65 button hydens. The master's price near 2900$ and Shipping.
