I'm looking to find out about the meaning of a number on a Silvertone accordion which was made in Italy. There is a number inscribed just below the Made in Italy. It is 309 96. I believe that the 96 is the number of Bass buttons, but the 309 has me stumped. I thought it might be the number of keys on the keyboard side, but 309 seems to be way too many. Any accordionists out there that can help me out?
Serial number or model number??
Possibly. I'll probably have to take it in to a musical instrument store to have it checked out. Might be a model number. I'm thinking 3 digits is a bit short for a serial number.Quote:

If not, then I think it is the model number.
edit: found this so think yours must have 37 keys and the
309 is probably a model number.... Do let us know when you
have got it figured out!

309 is the model number, it must be a very old accordion, I've never seen one or heard of one, but most accordion makers use similar model numbers, I'm not sure if there's any scientific way of coming up with the model number, it's much the same as Peugeot cars modelsQuote:
