FS: Lachenal Non-Pariel 48 key treble, amboyna ends - Reduced

[SteveS]

Lachenal Non-Pariel Treble English concertina - 48 keys, amboyna ends, gold buttons - in need of restoration. Restoration will require all the usual serviceable items: new pads, valves, retune and action set, as well as new thumb straps.

This concertina plays very well with fast response and with good volume. It will make a super instrument for someone transitioning from a beginner/tutor concertina. There are a few sticky buttons, but otherwise plays very well.

There are issues with the ends. There is some loss of French polish where the thumbs and finger nails have impacted the ends. Also on the right hand end, there is a small area of loss of amboyna veneer. There are also some hairline cracks to the amboyna. These issues are cosmetic only and not structural.

Does not include a case.

€1200 

Located in Italy.
