Takayuki YAGI Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 (edited) Just noticed this one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/175318556708 If you zoom in on the third and the fourth photo, can you see the independent pad through the gap in the fretwork ? This looks somewhat like Ken's Bastari. What do you experts think ? Edited June 15 by Takayuki YAGI typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken_Coles Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 It does look like a match in every detail I can see. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMON GABRIELOW Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Same here; its like my one too, which I am still using after 23 years!😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takayuki YAGI Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 (edited) Thank you both for the comments. Then how many of these particular Bastaris are known to exist? At least I know, Ken and Simon have one each, Stephen Chambers has one(Wizard anglo), I have one, and eBay one.

SIMON GABRIELOW Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) I well imagine there will be in incalculable number made, then as now, as long as they are wanted. Mine has brown coloured bellows, and when new.. had Hohner name on it. Strange fact is my one may also have become part of the Stagi empire; as I was once sent free bag of spare buttons which had Stagi name on as well! Edited June 16 by SIMON GABRIELOW Added thought.

Takayuki YAGI Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 Thanks Simon, I am talking about Bastaris with this kind of internal structure (independent rivet action and pads). Does your Hohner have such an internal structure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMON GABRIELOW Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 No, my one has different layout for action; they are all aligned together [so as to speak]. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takayuki YAGI Posted Monday at 12:02 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 12:02 AM The winning bid price was USD96. If anyone on this forum won the bid, I would appreciate it if you would share pictures of the interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
