conzertino Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 A nice looking EE 64-key BT model 16 is coming up at auction. Link A couple of years ago two similar BTs fetched a lot of money at another auction. Nice and rare instrument from a good period anyway...

aeolina Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 This was the box of the late John (Jack) Eaglesham of the highly influential Scottish folk group The Clutha (eg Topic Records). It therefore carries some additional cultural significance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

genepinefield Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 If it's the layout 'Non-transposed' that good for me Wheatstone & Co. Concertina Ledgers http://www.horniman.info/DKNSARC/SD02/PAGES/D2P0430S.HTM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Wooff Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Think of it as a 56 Tenor Treble with an extra row of low notes. These 64key Baritone /Trebles are quite large at 220mm across and with the 8 fold bellows you will never run out of air. I prefer the smaller 56 key version ( at 200mm across) with only a very few of the highest notes missing. Keyboard is non- transposed but shifted forward ( away from the player) hence the extra long little finger plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Gould Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 It went for £3600 (+ fees so around £4850 total). I wonder if anyone on here bought it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
