FS: Wheatstone 48 key baritone, brass reeds - any interest?

[SteveS]

I have on my bench at the moment a 48 key Wheatstone baritone, brass reeds, rosewood ends.

 

So far the ends have been repaired and beautifully refinished.  New valves.

I'm working on new pads, new thumb straps, bellows rebuild, action rebuild.

 

Includes a case.

 

Since the reeds are brass and of high quality, the instrument has a good strong sound and sounds like a harmonium.

It's tuned in philharmonic pitch, and I'll touch tune the concertina to that pitch since I don't think the reeds will tolerate being tuned down to concert pitch.

Potentially a great singer's instrument.

 

I just want to gauge whether there may be any interest in this instrument.
