hjcjones Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I agree with Leo. I have one, and it's great fun. 8 buttons in 1 1/2 rows. Single reeds, and very loud! The 2 basses lack a bit of depth as they don't have a low note. There's no air button, which is a bit of a challenge, but as the clips show its well over-endowed with bellows which makes up for it. It fits neatly into my made-to-measure double concertina case: http://www.flickr.com/photos/howardjones/4214973729/in/set-72157622947655663 I've always wanted to walk into a session empty-handed, and then pull it out of my pocket and join in. But I've never managed to go to a session without being loaded down with instruments, so it hasn't happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
