Hey, I decided to buy that new accordion today :( Yup, I brought my piano accordion in to be fixed up.


+New system of keys that is more versatile (chromatic). This'll get me out of my piano-keys rut. I'll have to think a lot to learn this system and make a sort of leap of understanding. This will make it easier to play weirder music to say the least.
-Ridiculously heavy, heavier than even my old accordion, there's no way I can regularly bring this anywhere on the bus! Which somewhat defeats the purpose, haha.
+Sweeter sound. It has the most "Accordion" sound of any one I have owned yet! There are switches to choose different sounds too, they're all very different from those of my previous one. Also, the bass on the button keyboard goes pretty damn low!
-Actual bass keys jam a little bit. What the hell? On something that cost more than a month's salary?
+Interesting gothic grille
-Previous owner gutted it and took out 2 rows of the keyboard to make it lighter! What the hell? But that's the main factor why I can afford this, otherwise it would be $3200+!

This italian song just came to mind when I picked it up. I don't really know how to play on this keyboard yet but I managed to get this out.
