Hello I either buy them or get given them Once fixed I sell them either via Hobgoblin music - an excellent music shop, or privately or occasionally on eBay. A full restoration will take around 20- 25 hours work . I do it for the love of it - I love restoring things and working with my hands , and I'm honoured that some people are interested in watching me do these restorations !
Hi Rich 🙂 I have a question for you today. After a year of regular playing, I might indulge myself and purchase a new accordion. With a budget between £1500 -2000, what make and/or model of 72-120 bass accordion would you recommend with emphasis given to quality reed voicing and mechanical action?
Hello Mark That's a good question I think the Hohner Bravo 72 bass is a good bet - I once had a similar hohner student 72bass and it had a really nice sound A weltmeister Jewel 72 would be nice but would be a bit more expensive If I had that kind of money to spend on an accordion I probably wouldn't buy a new one but look for a good condition lightly used Italian one Happy buying !!😁😁😁
@@richedwards9646 Thanks, Rich. The Hohner 72 or 96 is on my radar. I've also considered finding a very nice Italian used, so looks like our minds are on the same track. Cheers.
