This concertina is made for me in Klingentel, Germany and is designed similar to the professional concertinas, where the buttons, when pressed go into a similar drilled board underneath, thus keeping the buttons alligned and not able to go off centre. The reeds are also lying flat on the reed pan as on the professional concertinas..
The Garvey Concertina is a student concertina but a very well designed concertina and definitely an upgrade from Staggi, Hohner or other starter models.
This concertina at 825 Euro is best described by some teachers as an instrument that will last the student up to 5 years because with its fast action and immediate responce from the German reeds it can do all the rolls etc that the student needs to do.
