Hey Guys Whats Kind Of Accordions Do Yall Use?  Are They Good? ? Let Us All Know Whats Up. Ill Start..... I Use A Rossetti 1 (no switches) In GCF. The Action Is Good But It Could Be Better. I Also Have A Diamante With 3 Switches In FBE. The Action Is Fair But Again It Could Be Better. The Action On The Diamante Is Almost Like The Rossetti. Alittle Stiff But It Works. Jr |

Hey JR. Thanks for starting this thread up again.
I only have one box, the Hohner Corona 3500 Chinese model. I think I have said this before, the chinese boxes have a tinny sound off the factory floor so I had mine retuned by a guy here in Monterrey. Now it sounds just like the German models.
Some people have had bad experiences with the Hohner brand, but I swear by them and my box is a total workhorse. Takes a licking and keeps on ticking.

Hello JR
I use a Gabb piano and 2 two-tone gabbies. FBE/EAD and ADG/GCF. I also have two hohner corona classics on GCF and EAD.

Hey,
I still haven't figured out this new forum set up. Just tell him to re-register.

I have two Gabbanellis... one is in GCF, no switches, red, white and blue... and the other one is a brown, 2 tone, Fa & Mi. I'm in love with the brown one right now, it's so cool to just be able to change tones with a touch of a button.

Hello Amaya
I will agree 100% that with the touch of a switch you can change tonos is really cool. I really wish hohoner would make a 2-tono that would make me a happy man.

I got a corona in FBE tono, like stoney says it's a workhorse. I also have a norteno box with 2 switches,that was given to me by my dad who is a badass accordian player in his own right.

Hi, everyone!
I have a Chinese brand accordion, i believe, its a Yingjie, yeah i know sounds funky, but it has a great sound to it, my instructor got a hold of it and made it sound just like a hohner, it is a GCF accordion and it plays fairly well, it could probably be better but it will do to start off with. I also got another accordion made by the line of gabanneli, not anything very fancy but it plays good, its in tono Fa and its sounds pretty good!
Im trying to get a Cantabella with just the three swithches but i dont know if it is worth it, i played it and all but i dont know. If you can tell me if it is better or about the same as the Gabanneli, anyone, id really appreciate it, thanx!
