@hitachi088 lol over were i live these accordions are $60!!! not worth it........

[4stringjoe]

@hitachi088 Unlike diatonic button accordions, piano accordions keep the same note on the push and pull

[hitachi088]

@4stringjoe i am a total beginner at accordion (my fist instrument), can you tell me if piano accordion make different noise when you Push and Pull? because mine do(7button).

between, i really like the way you play! too bad almost no one play accordion anymore, its like an old instrument but i really like the sound it make, and the tune are superb.

@hitachi088 My original tune is going to sound different on a diatonic than on a keyboard accordion but why don't you give it a try anyway? You'll learn more about your instrument by trying tunes on it. Remember that the bottom line is to have fun playing music! By the way, I've produced a video instruction DVD about using accordions in jam sessions. You can find it described on my web site. Ryan

@4stringjoe do you think i can play that on a 7button diatonic accordion? (child prodigy)
