Thnx for the interesting lecture, but i rather hand over my accordeon to you.
Haha and I am happy to tune it for you, Kleis ;-)
Really nice!
Gracias. Muy buen video
Thanks!🙂😎
very interesting, thankyou, Ole
you are welcome ;-)
Hi friend. Excellent vídeo. How do I know the notes that every reed should be tuned on? Thanks!
Could you do a video on Octave tunings?
I'll put it on the list :-)
@@OleCarstensen Sounds good Thanks
Nice video.this video is for diatonic accordion.? Or for Evey accrodion
Thank you :-) It will work for any type of accordion.
Question for you, hoping you can answer.
I am left handed but don't want to pay extra for left handed accordion.
If i just flip reed boxes upside down, would that give me same result as a left handed accordion?
(3 row button accordion)
Hello Omar, we have written a blog post about this. You can read about it here: accordion-doctor.com/repairs/custom-made-left-handed-melodeon/
Cheers!
@@OleCarstensen thanks for your quick response! Does your blog have a resource for “rebuilding reed box”, or know of any, since it appears i cant just flip?
@@themuffinman18 Unfortunately I haven't written a blog post about that yet, sorry.
You'd save a lot of time by putting the masking tape under the reed block.
Yes, thats a good point! I do tape the whole row when I know that I have to tune the whole row, e.g. when I put new reeds. For spot tuning (like in this, incomplete, example), I need to find which reed of the two (or more) voices is out tune. I think muting single reeds to find the one out of tune works quite well and saves time. The less reeds you need to tune, the more effective it is of course. Once you hit a certain threshold, it makes more sense to just tape of the whole row from start and tune all of them, row-by-row. That assessment I make by ear before I start tuning. Cheers, Ole
