There is some joke in there involving adult magazines and squeezing but I cannot put my finger on it. Wait, that's it: no buts but just a colon.I know it's definitely not worth as much money he is asking for it but that won't stop me from constantly looking back at pictures.
The trick is to only ever buy an instrument if you absolutely positively have a definite use for it that cannot possibly be catered for by any other of your instruments.
Then you have exactly as many as you should have… lol
Is anyone able to tell if this is a Heligonka button accordion? I know it is diatonic but am unsure if it would have helikon reeds. Normally if they do it would just say heligonka. I'm considering making an offer
I sold/gave away 6 this week. Finally closer to where I was 10 years ago. Kind of a relief.
These reeds are too big to be standard bass reeds, right?Right. And no standard bass reeds get to share valves with their octave reeds. Or have the octave reeds right next to them on the same reed plate. And do you see any weights on them like with ordinary bass reeds? They are low enough by size.
Some of these leathers look off.They are. Nothing half-baked; they are the full deal in every respect.
I beg to differ. I think the ones you mean are long leathers (actually, look more like vileda to me which shouldn't curl but may stiffen) without boosters (plastic or metal) and the reed blocks appear to be held at an angle. To my eye, that does not amount to curl but suppleness. To me it looks like they would close without noticeable delay.
And I thank you for assisting me in my own bellows driven morass. According to my daughter's count - who flitted by this past weekend from the bright lights big city to the dimly lit basement where her father dwells- thanks to your kindness in taking some of my overflow I only have 38 left...
Well, the meth does not continue taking up space once you have played with it.
