Re: I want to buy a beginner cajun accordion- there is a Hohner 114 on Ebay, what do you think?

Didi,

The first one appears to be in excellent condition and 185 Euros less. I would be inclined to go with the lower priced instrument.

German-made is better, but the later Chinese-made boxes are not too bad, just not as good.

I suggest that you quit shopping and start playing!

Regards,

Nedro

Thanks for your answer!
I already started playing in July, BTW, I got my awful 40 €-Hohner 1040 and I bought a (rather cheap) Hohner Club IIIm, to play without tremolo, with all the chromatic notes, to play jazz standards as well, but the thing is a bit to heavy for me, as I am coming from the harmonica....
Now I try to get the Hohner 114.....
Thanks again.
