I want to buy a diatonic accordion, 18 bass and 3 rows, to play popular repertoire (tarantella, pizzica). Which do you recommend between: castagnari and saltarelle?
Thank you

Ciao Luigi.

I think a better place to ask this question would be on the melodeon.net forum. There are people interested in 18-bass accordions there. http://forum.melodeon.net/

It's all down to personal preference, it's like asking someone whether to buy a BMW or an Audi. Horses for courses.
I'd suggest trying both, and you'll know within seconds which one "feels" right.
And yes, try melodeon.net and you'll probably find about 50% of people recommend each brand! (I prefer Saltarelle for what it's worth)
