Very Nice 144 Tonlage Einheitsbandoneon #D113195 from Alfred Arnold in Carlsfeld, Germany. Stamped November 4, 1941. 37 Buttons on the treble side and 35 buttons on the bass side. This diatonic, free reed bandoneon was purchased by me in February of 2003 from seller stating it had been tuned by Riccardo Matteo from Uruguay and it remains in good tune and condition. The bellows is in great shape, as is the whole of the interior, and it is also quite airtight. The reedplates are aluminum. The exterior finish is in very good condition. The case interior felt is in desperate condition but could be refinished. I have no key for the double locks on the outside which is in good shape. U.S. and International buyer pays for actual cost of insurance and shipping charges. The cost for shipping is dependent upon distance from me and often Country to Country differences in cost and import duty as well. Expect U.S. shipping to be $40-$75 and Internationally to be $65-$145 US. The instrument will be packed very securely. |
