For sale is my Prince Melodeon #6813 (a foot pump organ) that I'm offering locally. Recently serviced and repaired bellows here in Portland (for almost 1k). I've realized that I'm not a very good melodeon player ! -- my foot/hand coordination just isn't there and that was made clear when a friend came over and was able to make it sing. This model has sold for 6k+ and often is sold "online" for 3500+ but I'm most interested in passing the music making along.

The bottom, sides and top come apart pretty easily as this was originally "mobile" as persons would take it around from city to city.
I haven't attempted to clean the ivory keys but I know that it's quite doable to make them bright white if that's your thing.

Text is best if interested. I'm willing to meet in the middle if coming from outside Portland.
