Twenty buttons and a non standard pitch might keep it affordable; a bit like getting a Dino 308 GT4 2+2 since you've always wanted a Ferrari...

Dave Weinstein Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) Had it not just been retuned, I probably would have succumbed and bid on it. Edited to add: Actually, no probably about it. The thought that there was a lovely original tuning Bb/F and someone (clearly meaning well) had it retuned to equal temperment/modern pitch as part of a restoration is just painful.

Gill B Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Isn't this the Jeffries discussed by "susan" back in August 2008. Sorry, I don't know how to link in the pictures! Gill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boney Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 The thought that there was a lovely original tuning Bb/F and someone (clearly meaning well) had it retuned to equal temperment/modern pitch as part of a restoration is just painful. Especially for a 20-button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
