DanK Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I'm thinking about learning to play the concertina, but need some advice on what is a good inexpensive concertina to start off learning on. I was thinking about the Morelli 2009 Concertina, but heard it was a piece of junk and to not waste my time. What does everyone suggest for a beginer.

Well, I'm a bit of a beginner too, and am just looking into getting an upgrade. I started out and am still playing a Rochelle concertina made by Wim Wakker and it works really well especially for only being a little over $300.

Are you looking for an Anglo or English? For ~$350 you can get a Rochelle/Jack/Jackie from Wim Wakker and all would be good instruments to get started.

DanK Posted November 7, 2008 Author Share Posted November 7, 2008 I guess I'm looking more for an anglo as they look like they are not as hard to hold as the english. Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David S Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 If you are in the UK, why not go for the Rochelle currently for sale on Ebay item no 380078321730; good value and easily resellable if you don't take to it.... but do be warned: 'concertina acquisition syndrome' is a serious affliction!
