Superb sound from hand made (a mano) reeds and tone chamber.  This model is musette tuned and you can play in contrasting styles with either the musette reeds or the rounded richer sound of the cassotto reeds. It is in the currently popular 37 treble keys and 96 bass format, and is thus easier to handle than traditional 41 key instruments while still having the note range required for most music. Made in Castelfidardo, Italy by the oldest Italian accordion maker, Paolo Soprani.
