Sounded great G!  8)


A little accordion riddle: What is the only tool needed for accordion repair?

To V or not to V: That is the question.

Well yes you have to play in the idiom!
For the accordion its all broad strokes as the reed attack is so slow.
That reed doesn't start to vibrate until after the air has moved it.
Plus think bellows getting pulled in and out. Its like taking a breath and they phrase around that.
Here is another.
I think it might have bee a detuned pair of the organ cosm..?


That mp3's stellar Bill. Pure genius. Thx for sharing.  :)

Not a bad choice. Quoting our local instrument maker: Nothing beats a Stanley knife for a quick bellows fix.

I'm super surprised and shocked.  Here we are a bunch of electric guitar players and secretly we wish we were serenading beautiful women with accordion playing.

I thought I got a good one years ago...
I remember just off setting the pitch of the A and B channels by a micro tone.
It had a very reed like sound.

I'm pretty sure you were using the wave model for that one upon re-listening...  I remember the attack was slowed down- it had a kind of hybrid accordion/pump organ type sound.  Years ago I visited a historic site that was a grange farm here in Minnesota and they had a pump organ on the porch of the farm home that was 100% operational - I couldn't resist playing with it!
