For Sale: Rochelle Beginner's 30 Key C/g Anglo + Tutor Books

[James Tween]

Hello,

 

I'm new here but not new to places like melodeon.net. I bought this concertina a few years ago and just haven't played it.

 

As a beginner's model it's a very good concertina in that it's perfectly in tune and plays fine (being a melodeon-player, I can confirm this), it'll be greet to learn on and is affordable.

 

The concertina looks and sounds like this:

I have also attached a photo of the actual one.

 

As it's an earlier model, there's no maker's name or model number. I'm as sure as I can be it's a Rochelle as the fretwork on the ends Is identical and, what's more, I remember the name from when I bought it, but that's all.

 

Details:

- nearly new standard -- 5 years old, played for 5 hours and lived in its box ever since

- 30-keys + air button

- C/G with a third row of accidentals and other helpful notes

- Wheatstone / Lachenal layout

- 8-fold strong bellows with no leaks

- wooden ends with black plastic finish, white buttons

- not sure on the reeds but they're all in tune

- adjustable hand straps

- no case

- two tutor books (excellent condition)

--- The In Between Anglo Concertina

--- The Anglo Concertina Demystified with accompanying CDs

 

£200 + postage

 

I'm willing to discuss the price but even with buying a case it should still come in much cheaper than the Music Room's anglo starter pack -- Rochelle concertina, soft case and book for £370.

 

I'm happy to answer any questions!
