Teknofisa Wood
by Antonello Messina
Teknofisa Jazz
In July 2019, the Vercelli-based company Teknofisa began construction of this special accordion. This musical instrument is constructed almost entirely from Canadian maple (a lightweight wood renowned for its sonic characteristics). This instrument has been part of my setup for several years and features other substantial and personal modifications to the bass (through a separator that prevents the various registers from overlapping and a modification to the sixth bass row).
