Anyone know of a vid out there?

Not exactly "instruction" but I think it could be slowed a bit to learn from.

Re: Crowley two-step instruction, also look at this box-

Hi Jim

this version is a bit slower:

have a look at that accordion, is that stop on the bass side designed to change the bass notes?

Re: Crowley two-step instruction, also look at this box-

My guess is that it drops the thirds out of the chords.

Check this out, Jim!

Re: Crowley two-step instruction?

Thanks ya'll, that'd be Rusty Sanner's Falcon that is 'dual-key'. Three sets of reeds for per key and the bass stop is to switch keys as well. Personally don't like them because they sound bare without the high bank for each key on the treble side. I'm sure they're great for performances, and they look pretty awesome, but I'd rather have a multitude o' boxes with the high bank. Rounds out the sound nicely.

Re: Crowley two-step instruction?

Without the high bank? Isn't it a mid bank missing?

Re: Crowley two-step instruction?

Awesome, Cam.

Re: Crowley two-step instruction?

always thought it was the high missing, but I could be wrong... either way I'd miss whichever is missing

That's some dang fine shootin' Cameron
