A very different perspective to show the musical Squeezebox from. The bokeh background works well and your composition is good. Colors are also great. Nice entry into contest.

Cool!
That's a nicely-presented image and it brings to mind the old song 'Squeezebox' by The Who!
'Good Show',my friend!

an excellent composition of this rare musical instrument,one which we dont see over in the UK much and am aware it takes great skill and mastery to play.Your close up shot is clear with excellent structure,good luck

A great entry for the S competition! I like the close crop with just the accordion and one hand. Well focused showing lovely detail of the hand and all those buttons, and good natural colours. Good luck in the contest!

You're welcome

Your history of this item is interesting and informative. I know about the accordion musical instrument; a member of our Singing group early on played an accordion when no organ was available. So, this squeezebox sounds familiar. It seems considerably smaller indeed.

Welcome. Thanks for sharing.

The concertina fabled in lore and song, most notably, The Who:

Mama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
And when daddy comes home
He never gets no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night

What in my opinion is the real eye catcher here is the exquisite detail of the center of interest.

The framing of this capture is simple and straight forward and understatedly presented... Bob

What a neat capture. I've never heard it called a squeeze box. We called them accordians in our house. Either way it's presented well, clear and focused. Great entry! Good luck in contest.
