Castiglione 8970 Late '60s/early '70s - Red

My grandmother adored and was very proud of this accordion she purchased new in Detroit in the late '60s/early '70s. She was very particular about keeping things clean and orderly, always kept it in the case when not playing. I am a career musician (but definitely not an accordion player) and I can attest that the notes are in-tune, the reeds sound nice and crisp, the bellows are tight. I don't really understand the switches, but they seem to work as they change the sound when switched. I wanted to upload a video, but Reverb apparently requires videos to be linked to Youtube, and I am not inclined to fuss with putting a video of myself playing accordion terribly on my Youtube page. Happy to send you a sample video on request so you can hear that it works beautifully!

I'd hoped my pianist wife would embrace accordion, but it has not taken. Therefore, I offer it up to you.
