I believe the tunning your looking for is Jazz Tunning.

Its called " Desordinada"  in spanish... Call Amadeo Flores @ 361-664-4448. He does a great job and has good prices...

Tres, isn't that a different tunning?  Your making reference to "dry-tuned".  That's the tunning I have on all my accordions with the exception of one jazz tuned.

Im pretty sure GB on this ... i no where ur gettin on the " dry tuned" part bc my F accordion is dry tuned... it really does sound like it has octaves like 2 G's but it trully doesnt ... when i got it tuned by Amadeo he told me that it would sound like it but that it would be tuned just 440 flat even... so i no where your getting... but it is called desordinada the way the 2 g's have it ... i was confused at first with all these identitys of tuning but Amadeo explained to me most of them an i learned what each one was..

Cool! Thanks for clarifying it for me Bro.  It makes perfect sense.  I know many of people get confused when it comes to the different tunnings of accordions.

Is Valerio Longoria's and Flavio's tuned the same way as Los Gilbertos i happen to think so. What do you all think?
