scoopet Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 Difficult.........but Will try........ It's in very good condition, metal ends, metal pointy Wheatstone label,ebony frames and as new best black leather 7 fold bellows ....in original box..... I would rather swap it than sell it.....preferably a good wooden ended Victorian treble....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikki Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Possibly a model 24 with 56 keys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWL Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I have the wooden ended Lachenal you see in my avatar that's too quiet for sessions that I'd consider including in a swap. Send me a PM if it's of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopet Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 Yes Riki it is a model 24......... More expensive than a 48 key treble aeola in the 1920s...... I,m in Devon England so a USA swap would be tricky....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopet Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 (edited) Thank you for the several offers I've had over the last week. I'm mulling some of them over............... Just to add a bit more detail........this concertina is a superb instrument it plays beautifully with a bright tone , very responsive reeds and balanced clear chords...... It is not as growly in tone as the model 22 I sold Geoff woof about 5 years ago, but in my opinion it is a better instrument.....or at least a more alround instrument ...it will certainly play very loudly when need be....but it's a bit more refined than Geoff's. The ebony frames are in very good condition as are the metal ends.....it has the metal pointy label. About 18 months ago Mark adey made 7 fold thin all leather bellows for it....the best he makes. With 2 babies I'm not allowed to play it in the house....and I never get out any more....... I've love someone to give this the playing it deserves...... the price is now offers around £2000.........it was too cheap last week !! .....or I'll swap it for a very very good wooden ended instrument.... All the best, Simon Edited January 12, 2016 by scoopet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
