I am selling a Jefrries concertina. This instrument is in the key of Bb/F. It requires tuning.

I have put a new set of hand straps on.

I am asking €5,000 euro 

If anybody has any questions or needs any information feel free to ask. Based outside Dublin.

Whosoever dare touch these reeds with a file shall be committing a mortal sin. Wonderful playing, btw.

[Simon Rosser]

Wes is right. Sounds great to me! Don't touch it - except to play more!!

Sorry for the thread drift, but what is that tune? (lovely playing, and Bb/F is my favourite tuning)

The Edenderry, nicely played.

It was very nicely played. And if that box had been on this side of the pond, I’d be wanting to bring it home.

Wondering if it is truly in that key. On my program, its 36 or cents above A440 and so I tend to say it's in an old tuning (and very good) and may very well be a C/G instrument. Hopefully some input from the seller on this.

Just wanted to add that I'm playing the reel in the key of C, on a c/g instrument and it fingers nicely.

Hi Everyone Concertina is still available 

Yes I think it’s old tuning but very near to Bb F 

Thanks
