Accordiola Super Italia

[JEBrown]

Hello all, I've just bought a 2nd-hand Accordiola Super Italia for a super-low price, just to give it a go (I've played piano accordion for a few years but always wanted to try button).

Can anyone tell me about this make / model? I've looked online but only found models for sale, no information about it. It has an On-Off slider above the keyboard which I can't work out if it makes a difference to the tone or not. Any information appreciated

JimD or Ventura probably know all about it.

oh my..

accordiola was european and i don't even know what country they were
based in.. mostly i remember seeing big old huge curved keyboard
models from waaaaay back when and chromatics for anything modern looking

this one looks like a nice mid-sized box LMM reeds.. i guess the slider
at one time closed the bassoon (L) reedset or opened it, but it must
be broken inside now

Thanks for the information - yes many hits I get when searching this make are from Sweden, and the original owner was Swedish, so.... And thanks for the tip on the slider
