HI,

I have been asked to introduce myself, I am Alyson Hardy the wife of Tony Taffinder who was one of the 9 members of staff that were put out of work from The Music Room, Cleckheaton, this happened when a decision was made unilaterally by John Turner to dissolve the partnership between himself and Martyn Banks. (We intend to re-open The Music Room when the old business is fully wound up).
This decision spurred Martyn Banks to start making a new range of Oakwood melodeons from his workshop in Leeds, as you may be aware this is the home of Oakwood Instruments. I now work for Martyn Banks as his Business Manager and we have opened a new website called squeezeboxes.co.uk.  We are in the process of getting the site up and running with the largest range of melodeons in the UK, both new and used instruments including Dino Baffetti, Castagnari, Saltarelle, Beltuna, Oakwood, Hohner, Serenellini, Sandpiper etc (no particular order) as well as introducing some less well known brands, so watch this space.

I hope this is OK and not too boring and long winded.

Alyson X

Great to hear of the new venture, and good luck.

Will you have a stand at Sidmouth, and will it be possible to compare the new Oakwood with the Binci Super?
