Thread Name: Salterelle button accordions
Subject: RE: Salterelle button accordions
I've got a connemara 3 , and found it very good, unlike the castignari you can play it with 1,2,or3 reeds in or out, so theres plenty of different sounds. The transition from Hohner button to a Mushroom type button is a bit unnerving, and I kept to the button but was able to play french as well as UK music. You wont have any trouble with Saltarelles, except the blooming Costalotti set lookin down their noses at it - never bothered me. I wish you luck, get a 3 reed one.
