nicx66 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Barleycorn has at least 3 that I see in their current stock selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopet Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 (edited) Thanks nic......I really want a wooden ended one.the world's oldest edeophone looks a bit delicate and the baritone treble has new ends.the metal ones look great but I doubt the family would agree! If I had a choice!!! I would like original wooden ends, original bellows........not bothered whether an aeola, edeophone or raised or flat 6 sided thingy......a good bit of fingernail wear and general patina would be appreciated!

conzertino Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 (edited) I'll hopefully get an EE double-action C-bass Aeola back from restoration soon. So one other box has to go: I have a 64 key EE TT Aeola with a bit of a story: a few years ago I bought an amazing Amboyna-ended 64-key TT Aeola with original gold-tooled bellows of ebay ( it come from Brazil via Portogal ). The ends were rough and some reeds rusty. At the time I had another EE TT Aeola ( it came from a Belgian clown ), which needed work, but had good reeds. So we swapped the whole reedpans between the instruments. David Robertson did a great job on the ends - now the Amboyna TT looks and plays as good as new. Some time later David did up the EE TT Aeola as well. It was a lot of work and he had to replace a couple of reeds out of my spare-reeds-box ( probably not Aeola!? ). Again the instrument now looks as good as new, the bellows are amazing. But by now ( I haven't played her at all ) some of the ultra high reeds stopped sounding... I hate to tackle those high reeds - and David is busy for months... So I would let her go for 3.000 Pound as is: A perfectly restored 64-key ebony-ended Tenor-treble Aeola with some replacement-reeds and a couple of ultra-high reeds not working - in original box. Please contact me for more information, if interested... Edited December 31, 2018 by conzertino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Molkentin Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Robbie has (had) a rather mellow one, Simon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conzertino Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I offered Wolf to choose one out of two - I'm keeping the other one! About the 64-key EE TT: It took me 10 minutes today to get the stuck reeds going. I played her for a wile to find that she is quite a nice box! You won't find another EE TT that has been restored for 1000 Pound ( receipt included ) for 2750 Pound ( or 3.100€ )!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good - sorry that I apparently got this wrong. However, this WE seems to meet the requirements better anyway... Looking forward to seeing you in the month of May - ?
