Zon-Rio (SANO) Stroller Accordion

Zon-Rio (SANO) Model 53 Stroller Size Accordion

In the 1950-60s SANO made fantastic accordions. Along with the professional models they had a student line named Zon-Rio (similar to the Accordiana line made by Excelsior). These were compact size models with hand-finished reeds. Because of their light weight and very strong resonant sound (wood had plenty of time to age by now) these accordions remain in demand and are even used by professional musicians for strolling.

The accordion is clean, with good compression and mechanical action. It is offered with a full year warranty and for the cost of its service.
