The reed tongues are the same with the Heritage and New Model, but the frames are different. The New Model has rectangular frames with 2 concertina tongues (push and draw.) This makes construction easier, and eliminates the possibility of the reeds coming loose. There is noticible difference in tone between the New Model and the Hybrid instruments, with the New Model having a stronger fundamental tone with fewer upper harmonics i.e. concertina tone. It is the concertina used on the video with Matt Heumann. It is also the concertina I usually choose to play either at home or when playing out at gigs or sessions.
