Really like the look of this box.  Any ideas?

The player also seems to have a customized(?) Hohner that he plays...

Hmmmm..... wood!
Some beautiful casework on his boxes, and substantial feet on the bass end. A quick look over also shows an interesting lever design for the air button. Sounds good too.......
Not heard of him before but one to watch!

I think I'm starting to get most of the notes in roughly the right order...... sometimes!

Metal (aluminium?) sound board too. Interesting bit of film.

Am wondering if Chris R of this parish, or any other Chateau D'Ars goers have come across this maker at the festival and got their hands on one?
I think they look good, and from the limited snatches of tunes so far, sound really nice.
Will listen later at home...

No connection, I just ran into the ad and remembered the thread...
