bayan

Hello everyone, I recently bought a Soviet bayan (Rubin 6) online . However, I found a problem as I learned to play with both hands. The bass and treble are fine on their own, but whenever I play treble notes on the right hand side while playing bass notes on the left hand side, the treble...

Hello my Friends, I'm very confused about the Bugari Bayan Spectrum because there are models with 47 keys and those with 45 keys (piano accordion), both from official Bugari websites (bugari.de and bugariarmano.com) I'm also wondering what the differences are between the Spectrums with 16"16"8"...

Hello Accordion people! Hope y'all are wonderful today. I recently purchased a bayan from Ukraine and absolutely love it. It's in great condition, plays well except for one thing, it's got enough space between the gasket and wood to let some serious air out. I tried the cigarette paper test to...

I am currently playing on a Pigini 42b converter but I urgently need a new accordion as it has too small a range for the pieces I play and it loses its character. I am really a fan of the sound of a Jupiter bayan. I did research and concluded that there are 2 jupiter bayan companies: Led by...

I am mainly going to be playing classical. I see everyone that does pretty much has Piginis. (free bass) That being said, I can't afford that kind of instrument. Do you think a Tula-209, Tula-302, or Rubin 7 would work for classical? Is there something about them that would make it not so...
