Accordion 911 / Quick Fix Repair Kit© 

It's performance time, and something goes wrong with your accordion; a strap breaks, a bass button is bent; a treble key sticks; the airline says your instrument is too big to fit above you on the plane. Not to worry ...if you have our repair kit with you. It includes the following: bellows pin-pulling pliers; vise-grip pliers; an assortment of screwdrivers; binder clip; duct tape; 6 sizes of reed valve "skins"; bass button straightening tool; single-edge razor blade; flexible glue; a small quantity of imported beeswax mixture; paper towel; lubricant; and simple directions to follow.

Bass Button Straightening Tool

Every accordionist needs this round 3" long metal stock with holes in each end that fit over a 5/16" or 5/16"+ Bass Button allowing you to bend it back into position. When you need it, you need it right now!!!

Bent and/or stuck Bass Buttons can happen to all of us who play the accordion.  Interestingly enough we would likely comment, "The last time I played my instrument, everything was perfect." Somehow, by accident, mishandling, or bumping, the buttons simply get bent. Be prepared.

When replacing or re-gluing a bellows corner, this all metal tool, with its sharp point, is designed so one can make an impression in each side of the metal corner, thus "biting" into the bellows cardboard for a strong hold.

A 1/8 lb. of beeswax mixture imported from Italy. Poured in a round wafer shape approximately 1/4" x 4", it's handy to have available when it comes to quick-fix repairs. This amount will serve approximately 20 to 30 reed plate and valve pallet mountings. Remember, candle wax is too brittle, and pure bees wax is too soft for your accordion repairs. Also, glues and epoxies may cause reed blocks to split. Beeswax mixture must be used sparingly, cautiously, and never boiled when using a finishing or soldering iron.

A sturdy oak stand designed to safely display the accordion. Keep  your valuable instrument off the floor, out of the closet, and ready to play at a moment's notice. It folds for travel.

A flexible clear plastic dust cover designed to protect your accordion from house dust while displaying its beauty. Keep in mind that dust and other airbourne debris clog valves and reeds when drawn through the instrument during playing. This causes a myriad of problems including reed failure, bad compression, & poor intonation. Please measure the widest dimension on the treble side of the accordion, and report that information when placing an order.

This add-on adjustable device keeps the top part of a Manhasset Music Stand from turning while you are editing or adjusting your music. No more accidents with music or stand falling, and yes, a lot more rehearsal time put to good use.
