My 16 Bass 31 button 3 row GCF Hohner
« on: February 02, 2014, 05:15:25 PM »
A while back, someone asked me to post photos of my My 16 Bass 31 button GCF Hohner.  I now believe that what I have is a version of Model number:  499/31/16, if I have read the other postings correctly.  Instead of posting all of the photos here, since there are space limits, I uploaded them to flickr. 

One or both of these links should work:

I find it interesting that it has "Made in Germany" in both English and Spanish, suggesting that it was marketed to a Spanish speaking part of the population in addition to the usual English speakers.

Great looking box, Alex. I have been tempted by some of its cousins on eBay. Do we have any recordings of you playing this one? I'd love to hear how it sounds.

Not on me yet.  There is a YouTube video aboard a ship, but the sound of the accordion is not audible.  There are a few numbers I have been practicing on my 2815 that I need to record first.
