I traded something for an old 114, key of C, almost as nice looking as on this picture:
It probably has the old ' sought after' reeds, as it sounds quite better than another one i know.
All systems work OK, no leaks, seems reeds are not rusty. Any idea on the value? thnx F.
The value in Europe is around $250 and in the US I would rate it at 400-600 USD. You could also send it to Louisiana and have someone collect the reeds and build a real box for about $1000
What an ******* response. More great music has been made ( by Cajuns) on Hohners than any other maker.
A "real" box. Get a life you elitist millennial Euro trash twat.
I have owned several "hand made" ( there is no other way to make an accordeon) Cajun boxes. Without exceptions they were, at best, folk art to be hung on the wall.
I own several (15) Castagnaris, look them up and check the prices, and still prefer Hohner HA 114 models for Cajun playing
Whoa, Nelly!
Fair enough Johnny Choda, the Hohner 114 is one fine instrument. It would be nice to have it cajun tuned though.´Ive never played a Louisiana handmade so of course I might be an elitist millennial Euro trash **** without a life but also heres a few quotes from yourself
"Cajun Tuning is tuning bey a Cajun.. As a Cajun Accordeon is one made by a Cajun."

"Gabbanelli does not make a "cajun" accordeon.
Only a Cajun can make a Cajun Accordeon"
