Dear
Accordion Friends,
Thank you for your support throughout the year. Trusting me with the
service of your accordion(s) or buying a new or serviced instrument
from me allows me to do what I love. I have a passion for accordion
music and for restoring as many of these fascinating instruments as
I
can. Thank you for allowing me to share this passion with you. I
consider all of you fellow musicians fist and then customers. With
many
of you we've become friends over many years of collaboration. I
truly
appreciate your nice letters and feedback. I am looking forward to
continuing my work with you and to meeting more accordionists.
This Siwa & Figli instrument
is spectacular. Imagine
the power of the Super Quattro now enhanced with a third set of
clarinet reeds, tuned musette and added on demand to any of the 14
different treble sounds of the Super Quattro! The Super Quinta allows
you enjoy the versatility of two different instruments and the joint
power of all 5 sets of treble reeds. The treble switches
design is
the first of its kind. The third set of clarinet reeds can be
activated
by a chin switch and closed with the last treble switch. The palm
master action is decoupled from the musette tuned reeds. Therefore,
pressing the master will result in LMMH when the musette reeds are
closed or in LMMMH when the musette reeds are active. There are 28
different treble sounds ranging from classic concert sounds, to mild
vibrato, to brilliant tremolo, to rich 3-reed full musette.
The accordion looks beautiful with the classic Siwa & Figli
design,
enhanced by gold-plated metal parts and tasteful rhinestone
decoration.
The tonal richness and power matches the appearance. No expense has
been spared building this instrument. It features the best hand-made
Binci reeds, genuine leather reed valves, solid-wood tone chamber, and
excellent mechanics throughout. The sound boards are covered with
leather to minimize the intrinsic valve noise. The internal metal
parts have been anodized and will never rust.
The full LIMEX MIDI and stereo microphones complement the
acoustic
instrument. This is the latest Professional 4 model electronics from
Limex. There is a very elegant controller mounted on the top side of
the grill. Many special functions can be accessed with the Reset
switch
(located under the air valve) and the treble keys. Manuals for the
MIDI
and microphones are included. The electronics was professionally
installed earlier this year.
- Hand-made Binci reeds with
genuine leather valves
- 5/5 sets of reeds
- L-M1-M2-M3-H reed configuration
- Double Tone Chamber (L-M1)
- Separate treble switches to activate the third set
of clarinet reeds reeds M3
- Clever treble switch design that allows
access to all reed combinations with less number of switches and
provides simplicity and elegance - 15 treble switches + palm master
+
chin (opens M3)
The
chin switch opens the M3 reeds independent of the other treble
switches. The last treble switch (Closed) closes the M3 reeds.
This way you can select the Violin and enjoy a beautiful Italian
tremolo. Then press the chin switch without lifting a finger from
the
keyboard and you have a full triple musette for French, German, and
Slovenian music. Adding the M3 reeds to the concert tuned Bandoneon
(LM1) gives you Italian-tuned Accordion (LM1M3) sound. Adding the M3
reeds to the concert-tuned Flute (M1H) gives you a beautiful Musette
(M1M3H). Suppose you want a concert sound (no tremolo) - simply
close
the M3 reeds and you have the classic concert sounds like Bandoneon
(LM1), Organ (LH), Harmonium (LM1H) etc. You
have access to 28 different treble sounds.
- 19.25" keyboard, pearl key tops with smooth edges
- 120 pearl bass buttons with smooth silent action
- 9 bass switches providing matching bass reed combinations
for each of the treble sounds
- Tone chamber in the bass with low
G reed configuration
- Large volume bellows
- The best quality accessories available today - bellows
protector,
generously padded leather straps, and case.
- Latest full MIDI and microphones
from Limex - cables and manuals included

This accordion has had a customer for
less than a year. The instrument is virtually new, just gently
broken-in.
Hopefully it will make a perfect gift for someone and bring a
lifetime of happiness and joy. It comes with two years warranty and a
nice discount of $3000.
