richard Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Hello I am seeking a smaller size Anglo with between 24 and 30 buttons. The key isn't so important as the smaller than standard size. I know there are some Lachenal that fit this description, and maybe other makes. I am not looking for a miniature which would not have the standard button arrangement. I would appreciate any info or leads. Thanks, Richard richardgldbrg@aol.com

Lawrence Reeves Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 There was a fellow named Chris from he south of England at the Mrs Crotty weekend for the past two years. He has a lovely 26 or 28 keyed Lachenal with big sounding steel reeds, and metal ends. It was in between a mini and a full sized instrument. With position of the straps I could play it, and was totally impressed with it's sound. I only hope someone on this list knows him and can get his info. He plays Irish and Morris tunes, a small hand drum is his back up weapon of choice.
dpmccabe Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Well, there's an $8000 Dipper at The Button Box. Those are less than 6" across.

He's an older guy, so you may want to get on that waiting list asap. Another cool box to have would be the Jones Miniature, its only 20 buttons but what a neat little box.

Lawrence Reeves Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 I will be spending a few minutes with the Dipper mentioned above. I think it will stay with a friend of mine.
Bruce McCaskey Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Richard, I have one of Bob's smaller 30-button models in C/G that I'd be willing to sell. Wheatstone layout, you may have seen it at Tilikum a couple of years ago. Bruce

Please email me if it is still up for sale. Thanks. Edited November 13, 2007 by cocusflute
McIsog Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 I have a Tedrow Zephyr. And despite his age it is really an agile, beautiful, great sounding and loud instrument. Highly recommended. Dan
