NathanPierce Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 This is a really, really, really open ended question but what can I get for around $1000? I am interested in all types: Anglo, English and Duets. I want to avoid the Stagi/Bastari lower end models if possible and am not sure if my $1000 will buy anything. Please be gentle as I don't know much about these instruments but I know they sound nice and I'd like to start on my way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henk van Aalten Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 $1000,- looks like a typical in-between price. For an extra $300 you could get this nice anglo! Henk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 Hi Nathan, Is that $1000 American? Australian? etc That makes a big difference how far your money will go, Cheers Morgana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimLucas Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 Is that $1000 American? Australian? etc That makes a big difference how far your money will go, Quite right. If I send my American dollars to Australia, they go farther. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanPierce Posted March 23, 2004 Author Share Posted March 23, 2004 Sorry I was vague, that is $1000 USD. Cheers Nathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Wagner Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 Nathan, I agree with Henk's comment... Try to find a used "mid-tier" accordion reeded instrument. There are a variety of good ones out there now... They have the advantage of new solid construction and fast action. You probably won't find one for $1000, but $1300-$1400 should get you a nice instrument. Also, you should be able to get close to 100% of your money out of it if/when you sell it... Don't go for a cheap lachenal.... Onward, Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
