Hello
Accordion Friends,
This
particular accordion is very dear to me. It is the first Super
Quattro Compact model and has helped me sell many after people tried
it and loved the open and rich sound combined with light weight and
compact body design. You can think of the SQ Compact model as the SQ
Artist without the tone chamber. The instrument has the same
hand-made reeds and resonant reed blocks. It has become the
accordion of choice for many polka performers in the country.
Selecting
a Siwa accordion you partner with a team of musicians, craftsmen,
and engineers with knowledge of the time-tested accordion building
practices and access to state of the art
technology, a team enriched with experience of restoring more
than 1000 accordions and able to combine the best features from all
of them, a team with a vast network of accordionists constantly
providing their feedback. You become part of a Community.
