What Accordion do I have???

[buildingblockscc]

I recently was given this accordion from my dad and I am interested in selling it, or getting some information first before posting it
as I have no clue what it is. I tried looking up the brand name on the case and accordion Tombo and couldnt find any information.
Inside the accordion there are some loose things bouncing around which I cant open the case which i tried to see what they are
Also the front has some cosmetic problems as the cloth would need to be replaced. But other than that the accordion is in good shape
Here are some pictures of it if anyone could help me identify it





Please email me back with any info

thanks

I've just searched for "Tombo accordion" using Bing and found lots of entries.
It would appear to be Japanese

Japanese ....theres a new spin .......they made great guitars in the 70s 80s until they became too expensive to be classes as budget........wonder what their Ackordeens are like.......

You may have trouble selling it for anything unless someone requires spares.

To begin with, these imports were of inferior quality when new and parts for them are now obsolete. Those parts you hear rattling around inside are reeds that have become dislodged for their reed blocks. Any repairs attempted on this so called accordion will be futile as the instrument has no value. I'm afraid you have a candidate for the landfill. JIM D.
