【Beautiful Condition, Ready to Play】YAMAHA YA48 Accordion Solo High-End Model, Serviced and Tuned

This is a used item (main unit in good condition). It has been serviced and simply tuned, with no air leaks, ready for immediate play. A rare red color ♪ A beautiful accordion both in appearance and sound ♫ Get it soon ♫

The YA-48 is a high-end model, positioned as the second-best after the YAMAHA accordion's top-of-the-line YA-80.
It's a beautiful and vibrant red color ♪
Weighing only 6.3kg, it's easy for even smaller individuals to use.
It features melody switches and can produce a loud volume despite its light weight.
(Starts from G, four C's below middle C)
There are 4 types of bass buttons: counter bass, double bass, major chord, and minor chord. There are no seventh or diminished chords. You can play various songs by substituting major chords for seventh chords in sheet music.

Operation has been confirmed, and various maintenance and simple tuning have been performed. (Unlike the common resellers who simply flip items! Peace of mind for a slight price difference.)
Oteisan's products are only sold on Mercari. (Beware of suspicious sites that look like chicken marks.)

* Sound output adjusted. Simple tuning performed.
* Some bellows gaskets have been replaced, allowing you to enjoy playing without air leaks. The price difference for the same model from Oteisan is due to differences in gaskets, leather for the soundboard, and other included materials.
* Bass mechanism defects have been repaired (as shown in photos), making it playable ♪
↑ The pressing feel of two buttons that are not used very often is slightly concerning, but they have been serviced and may not be noticeable.

【Condition】
This is a used item, so there are some signs of use, but no major scratches or excessive damage, and it is in relatively clean condition.
There are some scuffs on the body (mainly on the back), but they are minor and not noticeable.
Please refer to the photos for the condition. (The sound is wonderful considering its manufacturing date. Simple tuning has been performed to a light, slightly higher pitch. Approximately 12 cents higher.)
--- Reason for higher tuning ---
Bright resonance: Raising the pitch creates a bright and clear overall resonance.

Instrument characteristics: Tuning higher enriches the resonance of the reeds.

This also serves as a risk mitigation against the sound lowering due to reed rust from future humidity. This technique was used by someone in Augsburg, Germany. Research the era immediately (before smartphones). Some famous accordion companies intentionally tune higher. Example: Cavagnolo, France.

【Accessories】
In addition to the main unit, a simple instruction manual and the original soft case are still in very good condition ♫
The shoulder strap shows signs of age but is still usable.

【Shipping Method】
The item will be packed with bubble wrap and shipped in a cardboard box or similar packaging.
