Looking for Elise Hayden Duet in UK

[Alittletired]

Hello there,

I’m looking for an entry level concertina, and I’ve heard the Elise Hayden duet is quite good for beginners. I’m completely new to this, so any advice would be welcomed. Second hand would be a preference due to cost. In the UK would be best as well.

Hi Alittletired,

 

Why don't you get in touch with Concertina Connection, the maker of Elise, as the company sometimes has traded in second hands of its products. 

If they have second-hand-Elise is in stock, it should be reasonably priced than a brand new ones, even with the shipping cost from US to UK.

If you can wait for another year, Elise-2, which is expected to be less-bulky, may come into market.

Is this something that you heard from the Concertina Connection?

It looks like Red Cow Music in York has the Elise in stock at £415. Second hand would be cheaper but more difficult to get.

Thanks for the advice, I’ve made contact with concertina connections so I’ll see how it goes

No, not me. 

I read Daniel Hersh wrote this information in CC-Rochelle-2 thread.

Thanks, I missed this the first time around and I like the idea of an Elise-2.
