Concertinas for Sale UK

Browse concertinas for sale at Squeezebox Marketplace, including English, Anglo and duet concertinas when available.

Concertinas are compact, expressive free-reed instruments used in folk music, traditional music, song accompaniment and session playing. Although they are smaller than accordions and melodeons, choosing the right concertina still depends on the system, key, layout, condition and the kind of music you want to play.

At Squeezebox Marketplace, we help players choose instruments that suit their musical needs, whether they are buying their first concertina or looking for a better-quality instrument for regular playing.

English, Anglo and Duet Concertinas

The main types of concertina are English concertina, Anglo concertina and duet concertina. Each system works differently, so it is important to choose the right type before buying.

An English concertina plays the same note on push and pull and is often used for melody playing, song accompaniment and classical or traditional repertoire. An Anglo concertina plays different notes on push and pull, rather like a melodeon, and is popular in Irish, English and traditional folk music. A duet concertina is designed so that melody and accompaniment can be played together across both hands.

Choosing a Concertina

If you are unsure which type of concertina is right for you, please contact us before ordering. We can help explain the difference between English, Anglo and duet systems and advise which instrument may suit your style of music, experience level and budget.
