I have to repeat the problem mentioned by the other reviewer, LexAlex -
06.03.2023
'It was not properly wrapped for shipping. As a result, the accordion arrived with left-hand buttons stuck inside'
My bass buttons arrived like this too, earlier today.
I thought I would have to send it back, but I popped them out with a needle. 4 of the 6 rows were stuck right down in the holes, many stuck behind the case plastic. It seems fine now, but I will have to monitor the product during the 30 day return period.
Is this a shipping problem, or a production problem? It does seem like something Thomann needs to notice.
Otherwise I like the accordion very much.
It has a nice wet/musette/tremolo style sound, which is what the product description is referring to when it says '2-reed ranks on the treble side'
As a guitar player buying a first accordion, I mistakenly thought that might mean it has two different setting buttons, but the instrument actually has only has 1 tone mode. This is fine, as I was looking for the beautiful classic sound.
Good volume
Classy black sleekness with the rich red of the bellows, looks just as nice as the photos
I wanted to give this a higher rating but I have to give it a 3 for the delivery condition, which is the last thing you want to see when unboxing an expensive delivery.
If I end up having to send it back I don't want a refund, but a new replacement item, as it is a great instrument.
