For Sale: McNeela Phoenix 30-button C/G Anglo Concertina – almost new

[Eric Lerner]

I bought this instrument new late in 2020.  It was advertised as an “intermediate” instrument.  I learned from this that my playing has gone beyond intermediate, so I’ve played this one very little.  It’s time to find it a new home.  

 

There are links to more pics below, as well as a video of me playing a tune on this instrument.  

 

McNeela Phoenix Anglo-chromatic system concertina; 30-key, C/G, flat ends, matte black finish, Delrin buttons, steel reeds, riveted action, 6-fold leather bellows, Wheatstone note layout, with hardshell case.  It’s in like-new condition, except for a few trivial scuffs.  

6½” across face plates.  15 buttons on right, plus air button.  15 buttons on left.  Weight = 1 kilo / 2lb 4oz without case, 5 lb 8oz with case.

 

I’d sell this for $1400 (or best offer) plus $25 shipping to a USA address by USPS priority mail, or pick it up in Ithaca, New York.  No international shipping.  I expect to make an appropriate donation to concertina.net after this sells.
