griffinga Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'm wondering how one goes about identifying a duet concertina. Can it be done based on the layout of the buttons? I recently looked at a 34 button that had a row of 5 buttons in the upper row, and below two rows of 6 buttons on each row. The ownder identified it as an 'anglo', but he doesn't play - so coudn't swear to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirge Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Or simplest way Different noises push and pull: Anglo. 4 vertical columns of keys English 5 etc...Crane or Triumph (same thing) 6 etc... Wheatstone duet or Maccan if you must. Great arcs of notes, says Jeffries on it and is usually being offered at a stupid price by the seller who has worked out the name is worth money to some; Jeffries. and the outside chance: Great arcs of notes and obviously relatively new: Hayden Easy. Top or bottom rows may be missing a note or two to confuse you but it's always pretty clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mglamb Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Haydens generally use straight rows, not arcs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
