Here is number three in the links above, this will be the last one that I post. I really enjoy seeing different accordions but I don't feel it's kosher for me to continue posting pictures on the board, I don't want it to come across as me advertising !

Gorgeous! Do yo build these yourself?

Yes, I do.

Is that walnut on the faceplate?

How are you engraving your faceplates?

The facings are Brazilian Rosewood, the facings were laser engraved.

Speaking for me, I like seeing them. Good job on doing a different design. What key is this one?

awesome job on the accordion rusty. i would be proud to own one of your boxes. is it blue or am i seeing things

It's a "c", color is black, with the flash and the room lighting it gave a blue-ish hue.

Nice work!

I don't think you should hesitate to post these. Of all the people who post and lurk here, I think there have only been one or two who have ever objected to postings by others with accordions for sale, or that they had made. The vast, vast majority are not bothered in the least.

That's my opinion. And I suspect that 99.99999% agree.

Beautiful work.. thanks for posting !!

Great job Rusty!

I belong to the 99.99999% and keep them coming.
The box looks great, just like the others.
Very fine craftmans-work in my opinion.

Couple of questions....

1. How about a post of you playing that baby (sure is a beautiful box)

2. Are you selling your boxes and how much if you don't mind me asking?

Joey, I sent you an email. My wife's camera that I do the vid's with is on the blink, I'll see what I can do to post something.

You know, I just posted that I don't like the contrasting color of frames and face-plate...I take that back...it works great with yours. Maybe it is the black frames, maybe the dark grain highlighting of the face plates...what ever... It's Beautiful.

Beautiful box. I too would be proud to play one. Keep posting here and on youtube too. I love your version of Waxia Special.

Rusty, Great looking box and I agree, I really like the differant design on the front plate. Keep the pictures coming.

Your accordions are wonderful.

Please so keep posting photos of them.


Thanks .... Ed

Rusty,

The torch, has been passed, flawlessly, elegantly and

very eloquently.

I like both, but the "Blondie" evoques for me old

times, what with it's soft colouring and subdued

honey tones.

A very nice looking accordion.

Very impressive indeed.

Claude.

Beautiful work, Rusty! If you ever consider an aqua colored Ab, you've got a customer! (not to say I wouldn't love to have one of your current color schemes!) Way ta go, bro!

Rusty, if that is only your third attempt I'm extremely impressed.
Have you sold any yet, or playing them yourself?

I'm keeping #1, #2 was sold in October, this one is being picked up on Saturday.

What color is the inside of the bellows? I would guess red.

Very nice box Rusty. I like the faceplate detail, almost Eastlake style. I hope you will continue to post pictres. As long as no one is doing the hard sell on the board, I dont think our moderator would mind us seeing the pictures.
