Seth Swingle Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) In view of the cool market for English concertinas right now, I am offering this one for the RED HOT PRICE of $2300! Such quality, for such a reasonable price... also still VERY willing to trade this for a Crane duet! Wheatstone Aeola English, 56+air button, extended treble, no. 36258, which puts its manufacture in the mid-1950’s if I’ve understood the ledgers correctly! Comes with its original case in good condition. Tight bellows, all reeds sound in both directions, only cosmetic issues are some surface checks from being in a dry environment, and some crushing around several screw holes where someone tightened them down too much. Basically immaculate, particularly the insides. A very loud box! Many other pictures/videos/sound files upon request. I’m located in central Virginia (USA). Prefer to ship in the US, but I’m willing to ship internationally if it comes to that. I’m also happy to meet someone working a few hours’ drive. $3000, buyer pays shipping. Also open to trading for Crane duet of similar quality/condition. Edited June 18, 2023 by Seth Swingle Price reduction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seth Swingle Posted June 11, 2023 Author Share Posted June 11, 2023 Hey Mike, sorry for my ambiguous grammar; I meant to write that I was interested in trading this (English) concertina for a Crane, of any make! Maybe a long shot, but I thought I would mention it if someone wanted to avoid using money and stick with a barter system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
