Subject: RE: Praise for a new concertina
Hi to all you concertina persons My old Wheatstone English 48 which I've had since '68 recently got new bellows and lovely new nickel silver ends c/o Ian Simpson, who has made several fine anglos here in Oz, and I'm in love! I only had to wait 2 years for it!!!!! Lin - Wrist straps can be v.useful if you play standing up I had a gig shantying for 8 days straight slinging a 56 key aeola recently! Impossible without the straps, even with strong pinkies. Do what you have to, la musique is the thing. cheers to all Davo
