Here’s the story on this instrument. The accordion belongs to my spouse and she wants to downsize. So it has to go. She played this instrument in her youth, but does no longer. She is still proud of the trophy she won at the Rocky Mountain Accordion Society back in the day. The instrument is a classic Stroller Titano, made in Italy, serial number 16175. Yes it does have some years on it. But, and I must emphasize the “but”, she took excellent care of it. However, it has been in her closet for a number of years, unused.
We recently bought new straps for it and also took it to a well-known accordion repair shop in the Chicago area to do a minor repair on the bellows—one of the metal corners was missing and had to be replaced. While there, I asked the technician to give me a brief evaluation of the condition of the instrument. He “ran” through the keys and said that the reeds sounded good. Frankly, the bellows are in good shape, considering the age of the instrument, and it sounds very good.
It’s a 120 base, 41 key instrument with 7 keyboard shifts (Clarinet, Bassoon, Obie, Master, Organ, Piccolo, Bandoneon), a side-bar shift for quick return to Master, and 4 bass shifts (one master, two for more treble sound , and one for more bass). Also, it has a jack for microphone amplifier. The case does show some wear, the result of her carrying this thing around to concerts and other venues where she played. The instrument weights a little more than modern accordions, but they don’t make them like this anymore. I was told by the technician at the repair shop that today Titano only makes professional level accordions, costing many thousands of dollars. If my spouse in her youth prized this instrument –I’m sure you will too.
Shipping charges will be based on actual costs rather than a fixed amount. The cost of shipping will depend greatly on the location of the buyer. We are pricing this instrument below what used instruments of this kind are typically priced, in part because of its age and also because of the cost of shipping.
