Heres a question. I need to have my Hohner Corona II tuned, having beat it up for the last ten years. Can anyone suggest a good place to send it to get tuned? Or should I consider buying new reedblocks? I am in the NE but am willing to ship it too-
Thanks for any ideas, Gus
Check with The Button Box in Sunderland MA. Their technician, Bob is first rate and they are great people to do business with. Their website is www.buttonbox.com. You can also contact John Nolan in Nanuet, NY at www.accordionwizard.com. He is also first rate in repairs. Good luck
Hey David!
Good to hear from you. The great white north is not cold yet, pretty nice in the fall as you recall. Hardly any leaf color changes yet. I will check with the button box-as I recall they are booked pretty far ahead usually for repairs. Then again I did buy this box from them like 20 years ago! I recall one time I bought a new C reed block from Reyes, as I thought it might be less expensive than an actual tuning.
Sounds like you are doing and playing well, I enjoyed your YouTube song lessons, keep em coming if you can. I see the Cat every once in a while and even bought a Martin C box from him a month ago. I think it needs tuning and the next decision is have it tuned wet, as it is, or dry like most non Martin Cajun boxes. That is the question these days.
Good to hear from you man and you are sounding good!
Gus
