Recently I had the wonderful opportunity to work on the great MSU Basketball Coach, Tom Izzo's beautiful Castiglione Detroit Accordion. What an honor. Go Green!

There's nothing better than getting to work on a couple of beautiful old accordions and bringing them back to life. This grand Soprani and wonderful Excelsior were brought to me last week for some work. Wow do they have a great sound!

They had to know back then that brass would corrode eventually. When it does it causes sticky keys. Here's a beautiful Regent I worked on and brought back to life clearing off the connectors.

Nothing like working on a beautiful, well kept old Universal.

This nice little Hohner Concerto IIIN thought she could get the best of me. Aha, but not today! Got her back unstuck, working, and in great shape. Alot of fun to work on. Although, they really don't make them like they used to. I'm guessing this is a fairly newer model. The older ones from the 50s-older are engineered so much better and are far easier to work on. If you're having issues with your squeezebox, be sure to look me up.

Especially during these times we need our music! That is why Bellows Fellows Accordion repair is open for business and still repairing your special accordions. I just finished work on a lovingly maintained Dallape with a few stuck bass buttons and keys. She's back to making sweet music. Thank you for your business!

Currently working on the coolest little musette-tuned Noble. She just needed a couple of reeds tuned and some valve work.

I'm guessing this is going to be a very happy and musical Christmas for several families based on how busy I've been getting these accordions up to playing condition! Every treble key on this General was sticking and had to be removed, lubricated and cleaned, which was kinda fun, just time consuming. Beautiful sounding instrument.

Was handed this accordion in a real bad state. 80% of the reeds had fallen out. I'm guessing it was stored in a hot attic for several years, since the wax looked melted. What made this a real challenge was one of the bass side reed blocks was glued in. Making the "figuring out" which reed goes in which slot tough since I can't play it on the tuner box. But, hey after a few hours and puzzling I got it finished. She sounds beautiful and is ready to be delivered.
