Re: Mouton Bb on eBay..

If I had the flow I'd go straight for it.. It is one beautiful accordion

Re: Mouton Bb on eBay..

Not on the inside . I has a Mouton accordion very pretty on outside the inside a different as compared to other La builders

Re: Mouton Bb on eBay..

beg to differ. this box sounds killer..

loud, textured, breathy but bold.. no squawking, or just plain banal sound.. it purrrs... this sounds like a no bite bourbon.

I've owned over 25 LA made accordions.. this rates in the top 5 I've owned ( and all the others I've played ).

btw I have been asked for collaboration from Hohner and a few Italian builders.. so figure I've learned something.

Re: Mouton Bb on eBay..

What I mean is I paid $2400 and had to wait a year for it to finished being built. Looks very good on outside the inside there were no reenforcements in the corners had a loose slide and the frames were glued togather then the face plates were put in from the back side and glued in with a piece of eighth inch plywood. Maybe was just mine. Sound realy good had it tuned by Jr. And she sings. Just could have went see Leland Colagon spent $1800 and waited a month r two. And I haven't played a bad one of his. Maybe was just my experience not saying ur accordion is not a good one.very nice looking and sure it sounds awsome just stating my opinion .

She's a beauty!

Re: Mouton Bb on eBay..

Some Brave who needs a Bb should jump on this. Glen knows accordions and if he says it is killer, you know it is.

Bb is a great key. If you are killing your voice trying to get the vocals in C just coming down one step is so nice. Not to mention that the key of F on the pull is very versatile. Great for Flammes D'Enfer. And if you are into Zydeco, you get the Dm licks on a Bb box. Extremely versatile.

Re: Mouton Bb on eBay..

Looks like a buy at Glenns price only. Dont see a bid line
