I own a Morelli triple row and while it's no Gabbanelli or Hohner, it's very good for the price (4X cheaper than a Corona and 9X cheaper than a Gabbi).
We all like to dis these chinese boxes, but for $200 I think I got my money's worth.
Besides, I can play my Morelli anywhere and not worry about it taking a beating.

Scott,

Exactly my friend. I've gotten more than my money's worth out of the Morelli 1 row. I've made at least 700 dollars busking down at the harbor and the thing still plays as good as it did the day I bought it.

I had to make a few modifications on the thing when I got it, but it's fine now. For 130 dollars new, it's a fun toy.

What modifications did you make on the 1 row Morelli??

Mostly replace the whole accordion with something more playable.

That would be like buying a Lambrogini(?) to only go grocery shopping once a month while living on a beer drinkers pension.

Yea but look at the heads you would turn.

Not here in Florida. Most of the old geezers where I live would need to turn their whole body just to look at their drivers door mirror and can not see anything closer than 30 foot from the front bumper of their car since the dashboard is so high up.
