After reading a bit online about harmoneons, the idea of a free bass instrument with an identical button layout to the treble side sounds appealing. I know it's a rare type of instrument, and looking online these were the only two I was able to find. I currently have a c-system 120 bass accordion with Stradella bass only which I had shipped from Liberty Bellows. Another reason I'm looking at a harmoneon is that the converter accordions that I see are all more expensive, around $5,000 minimum.
Ultimately I'd like to be able to work toward playing Bach fugues, inventions, etc and other classical music. I was wondering if there was anyone here with any opinions on either of the two harmoneons I found and the sites they are being sold on. I would appreciate any advice.
