I have a friend here in UK who _urgently_ needs the tuning scale for
an 18-note Amorette organette. Unfortunately this is not listed in
"The Organette Book" as I was unable to examine one prior to publication.
If you have an instrument and could play the reeds one at a time,
either onto the computer or a cassette tape, this would help to solve
the problem. Simply remove the disc, turn the handle and press the
keys down one at a time, in sequence; probably using a pen lid is the
easiest way of doing this.
A contact in Germany has given a scale but it is nothing like the reeds
found in the instrument, even allowing for transposing.
