:ch :b I didnt expect to win with the max bid I put in. Nevertheless, I must say I am extremely lucky to have won the bid on this perfect 610 for the price. Ill have to find something similar to make a cover and glue it there. Too bad the careless shipper scratched off the triple musette switch cover. A little touch, I get the reassuringly quiet and positive click and the switch is done! Perfect! I am impressed. The treble switches on the 610 is the best among all the accordions I have, period! Precise, smooth, and responsive. So is the shape and size, fits me so much better than the much bulkier Morinos CBAs. The 610s button is more responsive and the reeds are more sensitive. The bass reeds are clearly superior to the muddy, oomphy, and harsher Philharmonic with a lot more clarity and sweet timber. But the reeds on the Excelsior sound clearer and wholesome, even though not as loud.

That should be the way to go!Īfter playing it for an hour, comparing to the 120 bass 87/45 notes Philharmonic triple musette CBA (from the 1960s), the Excelsior is smaller both in physical dimension and volume. I like the German way much better in this regard. My little Hohner Nova 3 doesnt have fake buttons either. All of the 102 buttons are functional, no fakes. Morinos have more buttons, the old Artiste iv d has a lot more in fact. All my Italian CBAs have fake buttons, very frustrating. Dont know why they put the fakes there in the first place. I also dont like the fake treble buttons on all my Italian CBAs. Would be nice to have all 11 switches unique instead. The Model 610 has only 8 distinct treble switches and 3 duplicates. The other two models both have double cassottos among other things.

Model 610 is Excelsiors lowest model of the 120 bass full size CBAs. This one looks like from the 70s by the shape of the treble switches? But on the current Excelsior website, they are still producing new Excelsior 610 today with the exact same look and setup. From the way the accordion was packed, the Goodwill folks clearly could have cared less about the well being of the beautiful instrument. What a miracle :b I have FedEx to thank I guess.

The great news is this accordion itself is in PERFECT condition, not a single reed, button, or switch is loose, stuck, or has any other problem. Its not in the accordion case, but it was shown in the auction images (see below), so it must fall off somehow during the packing.

Luckily, when I opened the box, only the leather corner protectors of hard case were gone (dont know happened during shipping or before that), and now I just noticed that the pearl cover for triple musette switch is missing. I wrote the store pleading with them for careful packing. Volume Level Scaling control for each section, by means of a potentiometer on front panel.Just received this one from Goodwill auction from southern Florida, shipped all the way to northern California, only with a paper box without any padding, for the hard case or the accordion itself.
