catty Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Someone claims to have one of these for sale, yet I haven't run across any before. While A/D is common for DBAs, have folks seen D/A concertinas? I would like to have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malcolm clapp Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Someone claims to have one of these for sale, yet I haven't run across any before. While A/D is common for DBAs, have folks seen D/A concertinas? I would like to have one. I own a D/A Jeffries 30 key. It plays very nicely, but is pitched two semitones above a standard C/G. What I would really like is a D/A pitched 5 semitones below a standard G/D, down in the baritone range. I would like to sell my Jeffries and order a baritone D/A, but initial inquiries from potential makers are not promising. Don't really want to sell my Jeffries until/unless I can get a baritone, but make me an offer.... MC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catty Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 Hey, thanks. I'm just a hack who plays folk tunes--I think I'll purchase this little German 20 button. It's cheap, but it's the fast way to play with my fiddlin buddies.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I play a 20 button double reed C/G with a substituted C#/Bb.

StuartEstell Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I have a D/A 20-key rosewood-ended Lachenal; I really must finish doing it up as it's a super little box - really shouty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a matter of interest, which notes did you sacrifice for your C#/Bb? And which is "press" and which is "draw"? Cheers, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Tedrow Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Someone claims to have one of these for sale, yet I haven't run across any before. While A/D is common for DBAs, have folks seen D/A concertinas? I would like to have one. I have built two d/a baritone concertinas and several d/a in both standard and tenor/treble. A very useful system, nice low pitch. Only available by commission as far as I know. Bob Tedrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
