Bugari Model 285 Silver Edition MIDI Amplified Accordion

Dear Accordion Friends,

It is a thrill to observe and admire, hug and play this fabulous accordion. This is Bugari's top of the line Silver edition instrument with 5/5 hand-made reeds, tone chamber, and state of the art Limex MIDI and stereo amplification.  The grill controller allows access to hundreds of built-in orchestral sounds and effects including rhythm patterns. From the same controller you can adjust the volume of each microphone as well as add special acoustic effects. The optional vocal microphone is included. You will not need additional MIDI modules to sound like a full band.  The display is very conveniently located and shows in real time the electronics settings. The Limex web site provides detailed specifications and description of both the MIDI and and microphones:

The original owner could only enjoy this accordion for a very short time. It was never played out on a gig. This instrument is practically brand new and is offered to a happy new owner with all supporting documentation including MIDI manuals and certificate of origin. 

This accordion will offer you enormous variety of sounds with 5 sets of treble reeds and 5 sets of bass reeds, all hand-made. The reed configuration is LMMMH. You have LMH with concert tuning and 2 additional sets of clarinet reeds (M2 and M3) with musette tuning allowing for concert (dry) sounds like bassoon, clarinet, bandoneon, organ, harmonium as well as a rich selection of musette sounds when adding M2 and M3.

Here is a summary of the features:

The accordion looks and feels brand new. You will love the contrast between the chambered bassoon/clarinet/bandonion sounds and the vibrant musette. A pure aesthetic and acoustic pleasure! The MIDI will open a whole new world for orchestration and musical expression.
