Paolo Soprani Button Accordions

The New "CLASSIC" Paolo Soprani Button Accordion Having gone the distance with the Paolo Soprani factory and produced the 2 couplar and the 3 voice, I realized that there were a lot of students and even professionals in Ireland who were looking for more than just the lightweight feature. The Paolo Soprani sound was what they wanted but with options on this sound. With this in mind I went back to the factory and had them put in 2 middle octave reeds and also a low octave reed. With the quieter 2 voice, the option of closing off the loud bass when needed was obvious. Also the option of taking out the thirds for accommodating minor chords has become more popular in recent years for competitions etc. Overall this accordion has retained its genuine Paolo Soprani sound and because of its quality TAM reeds can compete with any other accordion on the market. This accordion has become the most popular accordion on my shelves since its ntroduction and is one of the most popular accordions played in Ireland and by Irish musicians round the world. Features include: 2 x Stoppers on bass, one to close off low reed for a quieter bass and the other to take the 3rd out to accomodate minor chords. Full size buttons 14mm TAM reeds Lightweight Quality Paolo Soprani sound with great volume. Available in all keys
