Nice Hohner pre Pokerwork Burl button accordion converted to key of D using old German reedplates. The lowest treble key was changed from a low note to an accidental per customer’s request. Work Done:

• remove all reeds from Hohner C
• clean reedblocks
• replace leather valves on all ‘new’ D reeds using plastic film valves
• rewax onto Hohner soundboard
• tune to mild tremolo
• replace rusted metal grill (see replacement in photos)
• replace bass strap
• replace bellows straps
• remove thumb strap and add shoulder strap brackets
• replace bellows gaskets
• replace rear grill screen
• use C/Bb accidental reedplate at first button (chin end)
• limit button travel on treble side to be flush with keyboard when depressed
• repad pallets for quieter action and better seal (not required but reduces ‘clackiness’)
