Thread Name: New accordion
Subject: New piano accordion
I have had a Chinese piano accordion for about 5 years now while learning to play and always been happy with it. It is a over the top for my needs with 72 bass buttons, 2 couplers on the bass and 7 couplers on the keyboard so I decided to go smaller. I tried a 48 bass but that seemed a bit too small then I came across this Scarlatti on the Hobgoblin site at almost half price. It is still Chinese but has 60 bass, which is like the 72 but with the outer row (diminished, which I have never used!) removed. There is no couplers on the bass and only 5 on the keyboard so it is also a bit lighter. I am very happy with it so far!

Anyone want to buy a 72 bass no-name as described above that plays very well for around £200? Or know anyone who might?
