Hohner International D40/80/6lt

[Johannes]

I just bought the Hohner International D40/80/6LT concertina and would like to find out more about it.

 

Does anyone know where it would scale between entry level and pro? What would be a good price for it or any other information about it?

 

I'm just starting to learn how to play it.

 

Thanks for all the help

 

I looked at some other models and it look to me like the

D could stand for the D-key and the

40 could be the number of total buttons and the

80 could be the number of total keys and the

6 is the number of folds

and the L could stand for Leather

but have no clue what the T stands for

The T stands for Trouble.

The trouble is that if you like playing it, you'll need plenty of spare money because it won't be the last one you'll buy.

Hi Laitch,

 

You were right. The T stands for Trouble. I could not wait till the Hohner arrive from South Africa in Canada so I went to our local music store and bought a Silvetta 129140 Concertina (40 Reed). The sound is really great and I'm already able to play about 4 songs. My next dream would be to get a band together and start playing for dances.

Hey Johannes,

 

What you lack in experience, sounds like you'll make up for in ambition. Lots of luck with your squashbox.
