Ondioline for Sale

[Dana Countryman]

Well, I never thought I'd do this, but to raise cash for another instrument, I'm selling off my Blonde Ondioline.

I've owned it since the year 2000, when I traveled to Paris, specifically to bring the instrument home.

It has had several repairs, and has worked off an on since that time.
here are two photos:

Here are a couple of samples of the instrument, soloing:

The instrument still needs work, to get it playing in tip-top shape. I had a new filterbank faceplate custom-made for it, since the original was quite warped.

This is all vacuum tube circuitry - pre-transistor.

I don't think I need to give you guys a history of the instrument. Just know that it's extremely rare to have one for sale in the USA.

I'm selling it for a SET SALE price of $1750, which is *exactly* what I paid for it in 2000. Don't try and negotiate, please. AND, I'm throwning in the custom-made shipping case with the sale - a professionally made case, that cost me $300 to have built.

If you are interested, please email me off-group, at dana@danacountryman.com. Please don't respond on this discussion group. Private emails only.

I will take Paypal or cash. Shipping costs are extra.

If you're in the Seattle-Everett area, feel free to come look at it, and play it. I'm trying to avoid selling this on eBay, so you have first grabs.

Best,

P.S. I'll wait and see if there are any responses from this, and then I'll go to eBay.
