My brother stole my little PA! Hows this for a replacement?

[QuaverRest]

[thumbnail=center], i have lent my brother my little accordion which I take around with me, as my big ones are .. heavy!

As he seems to be enjoying it, I thought Id hunt down a replacement.

Here is a contender. I have to check action and tuning etc, and if alls ok I may buy it..

Does anyone have any info on the model? Its a hohner..

That's interesting. I take it it's a 40 bass? I'd say the main question is whether it has counter basses. I have a 32 bass Hohner IVM which is quite nice in its way, actually a bit smaller in depth than the well known 48 bass VM, BUT the basses are bass, major, minor and seventh - the obvious reason being that without counter basses they only have to supply 8 bass reed pairs. (Or maybe some people would rather have sevenths than counter basses......)

I believe that it have counter bass row, it have five rows on bass. I think it is maybe some lower budget modification or model of that one http://www.akkordeon-museum.de/index.php?p=akkordeons&cat=1&id=48
