What's a good b/c accordion for a beginner?

We have some evidence, however, that you may have to pay for the reeds.

Tell us something.: I wouldn't say I'm a new piper. I'm more of a wanna-be piper. I have a serious interest in learning about and eventually obtaining some UPs.

Just interested in finding out about intro-level B/C accordions. Probably interested in Irish or Italian made, but have no idea where to start. I welcome your thoughts. I've looked at McNeela's line, but have a hard time finding reviews out of house.

Hi Jerry,

You could try Martin Quinn,
you can't do much wrong with this Mc Brides starter accordion.
And sell it for the same price if you don't like it

Or if you're in the US, look for a used dancemaster

Tell us something.: I am interested in Traditional Irish Music, and I was told about this site. I play traditional music on a few instruments and am also interested in traditional singing and dancing. I like the fiddle and pipes together or separately, and also the flute and concertina anglo.

Certainly! For a beginner, I'd recommend considering the Hohner Panther or the Scarlatti 31-button accordion. They offer a good balance of quality and affordability. Make sure to try them out if possible to see which suits your preferences. Happy playing!
