Hiring Students Brampton

Accordian mellow, year of construction: approx. 1950

Manufacturer: Accordiana Melodiosa, Castelfidardo, Italy, Founded 1929 * 1951 finished

At the time of the purchase, this compact, golden brown accordion WAS found to be in an amazing good condition. Except that we had to renew the gasket of the bellows, the instrument had only to be cleaned. On the inside of the bellows we found a stamp that we read with: Hans (Geiser?), Meran, Laubengasse (South Tyrol / Italy). This points out that the accordion was well repaired in the meantime.

The treble disposes of 41 piano keys, 2 push switches and 3 voices. This push switch system is considered to be the precursor of the modern register switches. The bass part shows 120 buttons, 5 voices inside and one push switch.

First of all we assumed, that this accordion could be an Accordiana made by Excelsior; but regrettably that proved not to be true.
