Description
Up for sale, I have a Bailie, 80 bass piano accordion, one of the first accordions imported from China, (Circa, late 1950\'s) better build than the more modern ones produced today, in my opinion. It has 37 treble keys, 3 voice (LMM). The treble keyboard measures 17 1/4\" ranging from G to G and a 5 voice bass system.
General condition I would say is good. The usual bumps and scuffs for an instrument of its age. There are 2 pieces of trim missing from the grill. This does not affect the sound or playability of the accordion.
Good beginners instrument, or someone who wants it as a second instrument for music sessions etc.
It has 7 couplers, which are, Bassoon (L), Bandoneon (LM), Master (LMM), Tremolo (MM) and Clarinet (M). Two of the couplers are repeated, clarinet and bassoon.
Compression is very good.
It is an 80 bass accordion, which has 5 rows of buttons, these are, fundamental bass, counter bass, major chords, minor chords and seventh chords.
The accordion has been re-valved where required, and tuned, both treble and bass to concert pitch (A = 441Hz).
It has also been serviced and some cosmetic touches applied. It comes with a Hohner hard case.
I have kept the price of all my accordions to the absolute minimum. Accordions, by nature, are very complex and have an extraordinary amount of moving parts (the bigger they are, the more work is involved) and therefore consume a vast amount of time in an overhaul to bring them up to a high standard of playability. Please bear this in mind when you consider buying one.
Viewing by appointment only.
In addition to the above, I am offering 1 hours worth of free tuition valid for 1 month after the purchase of the accordion.
Unfortunately, I cannot discount from the accordion, the price of the lesson to anyone who cannot take up my offer of the hour free lesson.
If you are just looking for tuition, or maybe needing a repair to your accordion or melodeon, just give me a call on the above number, and I am sure I will be able to fit you in.
I teach both piano accordion and chromatic (5Row) C system accordions in many different styles for all ages.
I am prepared to post this accordion at buyer?s own expense. I will give a weight of the accordion for postage purposes, where upon the buyer can arrange a courier to pick it up from my premises. I am prepared to pack the accordion free of charge, but I will not be liable for any damage that might occur in transportation. It is up to the individual whether they insure it or not.
Alternately, I can do the courier arrangements and packing for a flat rate of ?20 (UK), not including insurance.
Overseas postage available, prices will vary depending on destination.
Sensible offers will be considered.
Thank you for looking.
