Dallape MAESTRO Accordion
Serial Number 29319

SOUND SAMPLES (headphone recommended)

Here is another classic vintage accordion in very good condition. It was made in the 1950s. The body was crafted from naturally aged mahogany. The original hand-made reeds have been voiced and tuned for optimal dynamic range. The combination of woods and reeds results in an amazing tonal richness and power. The tone is powerful with both intensity and overtones. The serial number is proudly engraved or stamped on the back of the accordion, each reed block, bellows frame, and many metal parts. The accordion has been recently serviced and is offered with a full year warranty.

Please, see the comments in the pictures area for more details. This is a reliable accordion with proven quality. It has been serviced in 2023 and is ready for recording sessions or live performances. Call 973-219-9259 with any questions.

The keyboard has been serviced and is a delight to play.

The key tops are nicely rounded like on the 1960's Scandalli Super VI, 1980s Guerrini President, and the modern Beltuna and Siwa & Figli accordions.

New bellows straps

The bellows protector is new.

The shoulder and bass straps have been replaced some time before I acquired the accordion and are still very good.

Let's take a look inside the instrument ...
This is an original accordion. The serial number could be seen on all major components including each reed block.

The body is made of mahogany. All reeds are original, hand-made at the Dallape factory.

A close-up of the bass reeds...There are no excessive tuning marks. I have done voiced and tuned the accordion and it is ready to impress.
