zaxxos Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 hello i'm looking for an affordable 30b anglo (nothing inferior to stagi w15 ln) with steel reeds good quality concertinas are too expensive for my modest income so used ones (even a stagi) will make me happy i actually play a 20b chinese (nice sound,but can't play with speed and precision,seems very fragile,etc...) so take pity !!! i can give between 300-600 euros for an well playable instrument the problem is that concertina is a foreign word in france ! there are none ! so it will be extremely difficult to make repairs and tuning down here... thank you all kindly here is my phone number (i cant call outside france) 06 20 89 63 23 thanks kindly Stef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Viehoff Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Why is it LE concertina (masculine) in French, when it is so obviously feminine in Italian/Spanish/Catalan/etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
