Now listed on ebay I misremembered the original price paid in Feb 2010. The receipt for £1510 is still in the case. Frankie

I've given up the anglo, despite waiting nearly a year for this instrument a couple of years ago and paying £1430. Lovely instrument, but too much of a struggle for me. It's the standard Marcus Music model with rosewood ends, Lachenal layout with a couple of modifications (an extra pull E/push F# button, and a pull C# on first button on the top right row. No G# on that row) Only played for a year, it comes with hard case worth £50. In Shropshire, UK, but I will send it anywhere securely at buyers expense. Pictures available. Any offers? Please email me: frankie@dearmary.co.uk. Thanks, Frankie

Hello, I have a Rochelle Anglo and I'm attempting my first tunes in the key of D. The concertina doesn't have a pull c# button. What do other people do? Do you use push keys for B, D and E when you are playing in D, or change bellows direction every time you meet a c#? Many thanks for any advice you can give me. Frankie

Many thanks for the advice - it's really useful. Frankie

Hi, I've been learning on a Rochelle for a few weeks and have now got to F major key. Can someone tell me how to play Bf followed by A, or the other way round? Do you use your index finger for both notes, one after the other? Or somehow try to get your middle finger onto one of those L1 buttons? Or use the A/G button on the G row? Is there anywhere I can get advice on which fingers to use generally, or does everyone just find their own way? Thanks, Frankie
