Wow, looks like my old ED 9-button. Wonder if it is? That was a terrific accordion if it's the one I had. Forgot who I sold it to... Even if it isn't, if it is anything like the one I had, it's a steal at $800...

That's made by John Herbert; built in the 70's. Elton has more info if'n you contact him.

I'd buy it, but just made a puchase

That price makes it a great opportunity for a beginner to get into the handmade arena. The ones I've played over the years have usually been easy to play but I'd always end up missing that top button.
