Siwa & Figli Schumann Accordion
Special "Olive" Model
This is the latest Siwa & Figli accordion model, designed for strolling musicians who like a more compact and light weight instrument that still features full size keys and hand-made reeds. The weight reduction is achieved by reducing the keyboard range from 41 keys to 37 keys F-F. As a result, the accordion body can be more compact as well. These accordions have unique bass section with 102 buttons. You can think of the standard 96-bass setup with the added D# row on top. The Schuman models are finished in palisander, rosewood, olive, maple, walnut root etc. They look gorgeous and the tonal quality and ease of handling are equally appealing. All instrument feature hand-made reeds and genuine leather valves. You can order any reed configuration and custom tuning. Many special options are available like wooden Tone Modulator, interchangeable reed blocks, amplification, MIDI, and custom color patterns (keys/buttons/bellows colors).Here is a summary of the features of this particular accordion:
