Scale of Tanzbaer 16-note Player Accordion
By Ed Schmidt

In the Mechanical Music Digest of 06.10.27, John Wolff asked about the
tuning scale of the 16-note Tanzbär.  The scale that he came up with
is correct.  The scale is as follows:  G C D E G A B C D E F F# G A B C

Note #8 is Middle C.  This was a good guess for just looking at the
punched roll and not having an instrument.
