You are bidding on a rare pristine italian made Scandalli accordian. This is a standard size accordian that has been in my family for years and very well maintained although rarely played except on very special occasions. I took it to a local music shop and was told that they no longer make this quality and it became popular in the United States after the 2nd World War. The first Scandalli was made in 1900 by Silvio Scandalli. This is one of the most renowned Italian brands of genuine accordians with high quality and sound. The keys and buttons are smooth and the sound is perfect.
This is a standard 41/120 accordian with a panel lever at the top of the bass keys to give you a different tone. The tone is in incredible condition. It has level keys and has been maintained. I am no expert so everything here is what I have been told. It was played by the gentleman at the music store and sounded wonderful. He stated that an instrument of this high quality and condition should be valued at around 5000.00. This particular model is pre 1960. The straps are leather with padding and appear to be brand new. (this is because of the care and the fact that it has been played very little)
The bellows are in like new condition as is the rest of the accordian. Stunning white pearl with red pearl. It has the Scandalli emblem on the front with the vintage Scandalli scroll. I have no doubt that you will fall in love with this.... If you have any question please email me and I will do my best to answer them. I can provide you with more pics if needed. It comes in a hard case that is lined with plush red velvet. Don't miss out on this one as I have been told an accordian of this quality and age is rare...
I do my best to not shaft people on the shipping charges, this is a very heavy item, so I will ship it ups ground. The postage will run 50.00-60.00 so I am setting it at 50.00 and will pay the rest. It must be fully insured. Please do not bid if you are not going to pay. I have had problems with buyers saying that their items were not received so all items are now shipped with delivery confirmation. There is no reserve,,, Happy bidding
