Whoa!! Do you have much experience with accordion repair? I've rewaxed some reed blocks but have meant to do a full valve overhaul and spot tuning on one of mine for years, I just feel like I need like a month with no plans and a whole room to do it in!
Only about as much as you, it sounds like! All learned from http://accordionrevival.com/
Honestly, tuning sounds like such an exacting nightmare that I would be afraid to try. If I ever get a nicer accordion, though, I'm going to go all ship-of-Theseus on my darling hunk of junk. It would be a good learning exercise.
this is great, didn't know about this! People wind up finding garbage accordions and somehow they wind up in my possession because they don't know what to do with them, I've wanted to tune one of those for a while now just because I wouldn't be worried about messing it up. Ship of Theseusing an accordion, however, is a super intimidating thought - just because I can't imagine parts are very interchangeable!
Ah, well, I am an engineering student. I have access to CAD software and a wide variety of fabrication tools. I was sort of joking, I would only replace the broken/worn out bits.... but that is about 40% of the total instrument.
