    A newbie with a wonderful older Hohner, any ideas on model/age?

    I have two accordions that were passed down to me. This Hohner in particular is in very good shape. From what I understand it may be pre-student? Any light shed on this is much appreciated. Thanks!

    New accordion - buying advice

    Dear community, I've been considering purchasing a new 120 bass acoustic accordion, ideally made in Germany or Italy. From my research, it seems that Hohners may not be the best option as most of them are manufactured in China. Giulietties are popular in the US and Brazil, but they are quite...
