Professional PIETRO Accordion
Excellent Acoustic Accordions with Stereo Amplification and MIDI !
Here is
another beautiful
instrument that combines the versatility of a full size 4/5 reed
professional acoustic accordion with the vast capabilities of the
electronic orchestral sounds. The accordion features hand made reeds, state-of-the-art amplification, and complete MIDI
setup for treble and bass. You will need an external MIDI module
(expander/arranger like Solton, Ketron, Roland etc.) to
control the electronic functions. There is a small power supply box
that serves as an interface to the MIDI arranger. It is included with
the accordion along with all necessary cables. The
entire setup is in showroom pristine condition and ready to
use for professional studio work or personal pleasure. The treble reed
configuration is LMMM with musette.
The keyboard action is excellent. The bass machine is absolutely
silent.

This is a
very versatile
instrument. You can play it as a fine acoustic
accordion, as an amplified accordion, as electronic MIDI instrument, or
in any combination of these features. All acoustic and
electronic features work perfect. The balance is very good and
I can easily handle this accordion for several hours
non-stop performance. The sound is very rich and clean. You can
get a deep
resonant bassoon and clear clarinet along with
lovely violin and a punchy musette.
This accordion comes with 2 years warranty.

You've got to see this
instrument
under the sun or bright stage light. It looks gorgeous.
The last treble switch
"CLOSED"
cancels the acoustic sounds for MIDI-only performance.
This is a very useful feature that allows you to play different
combinations of accordion and orchestral sounds.
