Cassotto 374 played by Vladimir Butusov

The intro model The Weltmeister Cassotto combines all the advantages of a cassotto accordion with the lightweight body of a standard instrument. At only 10.4 kg, the Cassotto is nearly as light as the comparable Topas IV, but it has the cassotto, which lends a different sound to the basic and lower reed ranks. The instrument's light weight is due to the special filling cassotto, a resonance duct that is not built into the accordion, but placed on the filling. This makes the accordion easier and more cost-effective to service and tune. This Weltmeister accordion is as much at home in an orchestra as it is with a soloist on stage and it holds its own with all types of music. The Cassotto model is available with 37 keys and 96 bass buttons as well as with 41 keys and 120 bass buttons.
