I would be a fool to only own/play a 61 key model...I would rather just play the accordion..

Starting with my JX10..and today with the MediaStation and G70...


Apart from your Prelude

My accordion was the Giulietti 140 bass, Stradella+Free bass so I also studied and played what they called "Classical Accordion" too.

I agree totally with Fran that apart from left hand technique, most proficient to good accordion players usually go on to be decent keyboard players as well.

Still prefer 76 note keyboards though..Big-Time

Ian, my accordion has 41 right hand keys....and my split point has 120 on my left hand..

Don't tell me you even prefer undersize accordions too..

Yeah, that why I find my S910 so cool...41 notes for the melody.

Real accordion players use the 41 keys for chords..
