All the best /Klaus KLJ Trading

For sale is a vintage BES Stahltöne button accordion, a rare and collectible piece featuring a black wooden body with metal accents and an intact bellows. The instrument is functional, with notes playing and air compression working, but it is basic function tested only. It will require inspection, tuning, and potential servicing by an experienced accordion player or technician to be fully optimized.

Key Features:

  • Brand & Model: BES Stahltöne
  • Vintage Construction: Sturdy black wood with metal corner reinforcements
  • Functionality: Basic playability tested—notes sound, and the bellows appear to be airtight
  • Condition: Shows wear consistent with age; cosmetic imperfections (see photos)
  • Tuning & Service Required: Ideal for restoration, display, or an experienced musician

This is a rare piece with historical value, making it perfect for collectors, restoration enthusiasts, or musicians looking for a unique accordion. Given its working state but need for service, it is sold as-is.
