Thread Name: I'm learning melodeon
Subject: RE: I'm learning melodeon
Like all successful pushers, I'm not actually a consumer of the vice I supply :). I'm an accordionist, after all, the bright side, the true path etc,etc.

But I was delighted when John fell in love with our D/G melodeon at Whitby. He was a great help to Bill Sables, who ran our Black Diamond Accordion stall for the week.

Bill had George Garside call by, who gave the BDA D/G melodeon a good notice, and I have since had a long and very interesting conversation with George, and his idea of dumping the accidentals and going for a fourth button start has got us thinking.

Anyroadup, glad to hear you're wrestling with the box successfully, John, and getting both sides going.

All best
Greg
