lovely sound and playing - bought one of these boxes myself today (actually a blue one too)...! Will pick it up on Sunday...

3-Voice Hohner in DG, treble pull-stop for MM or LMM; 12-bass with pull-stop to remove thirds from chords. Identical in size to a Pokerwork, this started life as a Student 1 Piano Accordion, converted to DG melodeon for Ralph Smethurst. Sounds great in both 3 and in 2-voice mode ... 4th button start - 'Anahata' layout+accidentals; additional basses are A/E and F#/Bmin.

3-Voice DG Hohner 12 bass with treble (LMM or MM) +bass stops.

Delightful Hohner Erica in D/G, bandoneon-tuned treble (LM) with Octave-fifth chords (ie no thirds; Root note+ doubled 5ths an octave apart) ... the usual perloid case was stripped and the wood then sealed/waxed, grill and cloth + fingerboard work all done beautifully by Andy W ..... A stunning instrument to play and view. With bandoneon tuning, standard triad chords can sound 'mushy' ... octave 5ths complements and fits perfectly with the LM treble set-up.

Early Hohner Club Model II - restored for a customer. There;'s a beautiful tone from this instrument - a rich full bass and amazing clarity from the treble end. The zinc reedplates in these vintage boxes never fail to deliver.
