Hello ! Well, my work is quite unusual, and is difficult to describe. My name is Bernard Loffet, and I live in France. I make and repair musical instruments in my workshop, mainly wind instruments like clarinet, oboe, saxophone, flute, bassoon... and I make and repair accordions.
All my accordions have velvet padded straps and the one for the left hand has an adjustable length, bellows with external folds covered in fabric, "mushroom shape" quiet keyboard buttons and a lot of details... that a musician-luthier would want for the pleasure of the player...
The " Touptit " As its name indicates it is very small (21,5x14x25,5 cm - 8.5"x5.5"x3.9"), powerful in spite of the fact that it has only one reed per button at the melody keyboard. It weighs hardly 2 kilos, or 4 pounds and its small size naturally lends itself to portability Like my other 2 rows, it is equipped with Antonelli's Dural quality Italians reeds, 2 rows (19 keys) 1 reed per button on the right hand, 8 basses at the left hand, very light, it is the accordion of the beginner wishing a light accordion travelling everywhere... and its price is light too !The " Touptit " is sold with leather straps and a Gig bag. £799
Here's the "Petit", It's a powerful diatonic accordion, with a sharp acute sound, the keyboards action is fast and supple, the weight is less than 6 pounds, Antonelli's Dural quality Italian reeds. 2 rows 2 voices at the right hand, 8 basses 3 voices at the left hand, it's THE beginner's accordion. Available in any Key and can be tremelo or octave tuned £999
This Accordion is also available as a 3 voice treble instrument, with a stop on the bass to remove the thirds and a treble stop to remove the low octave reed. A popular model £1399
