I have not yet gotten the courage to purchase anything off the internet, but I would be willing to drive a considerable distance to see this instrument.

Hello dand1usa, Chris, et.al.,

 

I am near Denver, Colorado. You are most welcome to visit.

 

This is the same instrument and I am the same owner in the post Chris notes. Hard drive crash ... new e-mail address ... and I couldn't easily locate any of my previous log-in records, so I just started over.

 

I placed the Oct 2005 post shortly after acquiring a 20's amboyna, but almost immediately had serious after-thoughts about parting with it and pulled the post. Now, that some time has passed, I think I am ready to let it go.

 

It is beautiful - visually and aurally - certainly part of the difficulty in parting company with it. It's a superb concertina not often available in the US.

 

Be Well,

 

Dan
