The instrument is a Wheatstone Model 5a treble from 1918, restored by me several years ago including new bellows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. I felt I could write arrangements that fit well into the range of a treble without the added weight of a bigger box. It is a bit of a trade-off like many choices. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
