Model 288 Gold/Silver Plus

This special series Concert Accordion, the Bugari 288 Gold/Silver Plus features Ivory colored keys and  buttons with genuine gold or silver fittings. The 288 Gold/Silver Plus has achieved what many thought to be no longer physically possible; what Bugari considers to be the art of perfection. It belongs to a class of its own, setting the standard by which all other accordions are compared. Uniquely and individually handcrafted from the highest quality materials through four generations of craftsmen, no accordion is as powerful in sound nor will endure the test of time like an Bugari 288 Gold/Silver Plus. The 288 Gold/Silver Plus Concert is designed for the discerning professional artist featuring unprecedented versatility. A uniquely dry-tuned violin register captures the pure tone of a non-chambered voice with the harmonically vibrant resonance of a chambered voice. From the haunting harmonic complexity of the chambered bassoon to the unique, unison violin register; a profound and distinct clarity to each note.
