Thread Name: Leaving Musical Instruments Behind
Subject: RE: Leaving Musical Instruments Behind
I was given my current piano accordion, a 120 bass Hohner Atlantic IV from a friend of a friend who had died of cancer some years before. This lady's husband wanted to clear out his house before moving to a smaller home. The instrument turned out to be better quality than the one I was playing at the time - the only work needed was fitting a new set of straps. I sold my old accordion, took out for the cost of the new straps, and donated the remainder to cancer research.
