Mirafona?

Post by BassTBone »

There's this ebay listing for what looks like a Mirafone 186 but is stamped "Mirafona".

Anybody ever seen that? Can't seem to find a reference on "Mirafona"

I heard back from Miraphone... They have never seen this before either, and it was so long ago, there are no records of it. Their best guess was that this is a typo.

Possibly Herr Theinert would know something about it... If someone were truly persistent about knowing the true answer. BTW, what is Theinert up to these days in his new role?
