The least expensive 30 button anglo concertina available. It is not up to the quality of the other concertinas we sell but it is a great inexpensive way for the beginner to try Irish and seaman style playing without making a substantial investment in an instrument. Produces a different note on the draw and the press. The 30 button Anglo System concertina is the type of instrument popularly used for Irish music, Sea Shanties, Scottish and English country dance music, as well as your Italian favorites.

While the notes are accurate during the time this concertina works, this concertina has buttons that stick, and notes that stay open even when the button isn't pressed.
If you're thinking of taking it apart to try and repair it, good luck. The screws pictured above don't turn very easily. Obviously they weren't meant for taking back out. If you get them out, though, you then have to deal with the fact that the place to access the buttons is -GLUED SHUT-. So good luck getting in there.
Also, I had to make a new hole in the hand straps to get it tight enough, but that may just be because I have scrawny hands.
If you're looking for a cheap and affordable one to try to learn on, I'd pass on this one, even though it is a 30-button. Unless you can learn it all up on a day, it won't be worth the money ya pay on it. I guess I've learned from my experience though. (at least it arrived in a timely manner.) |
