Used Vignoni Philharmonic IV 120 Bass MIDI Piano Accordion

Used Vignoni Philharmonic IV Musette Piano Accordion

A superbly equipped professional accordion combining the powerful sound of Watkins Super-M reeds, rich musette tuning, double cassotto construction and a fully working MusicTech Q-Link MIDI system. This used Vignoni Philharmonic IV has 41 piano keys, 120 basses, 11 treble couplers and seven bass couplers, making it an exceptionally versatile instrument with particular appeal for Scottish-style players.

A rich traditional musette sound

The Philharmonic IV is a four-voice piano accordion with a full musette tuning, producing the bright, vibrant and projecting sound sought after by many Scottish accordion players.

Its Watkins Super-M reeds give the instrument considerable tonal character and power, whether played for traditional dance music, solo performance or accompaniment.

Double cassotto construction

This instrument features double cassotto construction, giving selected reed voices a warmer, rounder and more refined tonal quality.

The combination of cassotto voices and full musette provides a particularly broad sound palette, ranging from rich and mellow tones to the powerful tremolo sound associated with traditional Scottish-style playing.

Extensive register choice

With 11 treble couplers and seven bass couplers, the player has access to an extensive selection of treble and bass combinations.

All keys, bass buttons and couplers are working correctly, and the accordion is fully playable and ready to use.

MusicTech Q-Link MIDI system

A MusicTech Q-Link MIDI system is fitted and has been tested as fully working.

This adds a further dimension to an already versatile acoustic accordion, allowing the player to access MIDI sounds and expand the instrument’s capabilities for performance and entertainment.

The associated MIDI equipment supplied is shown in the product photographs.

Fully decorated black finish

The black body is fully dressed and decorated, giving the accordion the impressive appearance expected of a high-quality professional instrument.

Visible detailing includes Watkins, Philharmonic and Super-M branding. The overall cosmetic condition is excellent for an accordion approximately 30 years old.
