Re: Hohner 114 versus Gabbanelli

While I prefer the sound of a vintage HA-114 over the Gabbanelli, I do not like thee sound of the new ones. As for playability, I have always been a fan of the Gabbanelli. They approximate the size, look and feel of a Handbuilt Cajun accordion. The Gabbanelli isn't shipped with the same tuning as is preferred for Cajun music, but that can be remedied by most accordion builders for around $50. Some say they aren't very loud, but that can be said for some of the builders that I know.
