Here is a link to see the bandoneon: http://pages.infinit.net/milonga/Index.html. There are 10 pictures in total. The high-resolution originals are 1.5 Megabytes in size, and if you want me to send you the original pictures, I will.
On the bass side, one of the buttons has become unglued. So, there are two pictures of the left-hand side - one with the button in place and one with the button removed. You will notice that on the treble side one button has been added. In order to appreciate this bandoneon, you really have to hear and play it. Unfortunately, I do not have any sound files. I can tell you that everyone who has heard this instrument (including me) thought that it sounded wonderful. I found it effortless to play this bandoneon. The action was very smooth. I didn't have to open or close it much in order to get the reeds vibrating. It was taken to a local professional bandoneonist. He said that the bandoneon was in excellent condition. The bandoneon comes with a soft-sided carrying case that is in excellent condition. The bandoneon is in Montreal, Canada. It costs US$2,000. Write me if you want to examine it or if you have any questions about it. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
