Andys first, and one of his latest accordions.

The accordion on the right; the "Lira" was purchased for me by my Dad in 1961 or 1962. It still plays beautifully! The larger instrument on the left; the "G.Verde" is a recent aquisition and one I'm just having fun with. Many amazing tones from this one. Probably built in the late 40's or early 50's this is a large 4 reeder tuned like the ones you heard in the background of the old Western movies and romance movies of that time.
