It is not easy to find a light weight stroller accordions of professional quality. The Sonola AA3 is one of these rare instruments that combine a compact body design with a full range of 41 keys, 120 bass buttons, and a clear rich sound typical for Sonola's prestigious Academy Award Series. The weight is only 20 lb. The keyboard length across the white keys is 18".This particular instrument is in very good to excellent condition. It was serviced in April 2011. The compression is excellent. The reeds are very efficient and don't need much air to reveal their full dynamic range and tonal richness.  The response is fabulous.Very clean throughout, with shiny chrome plating and a keyboard restored to original factory specifications, this accordion will charm you with tonal presence and character.
