Going from Petosa to Camillo (Guerrini)

[Rafael]

I'm thinking of going from a Petosa SM300 to a Camillo Maestro from Guerrini. Do you think it would be a good improvement in terms of the quality of the instrument? I´m not a professional player. I´m an advanced beginner accordion student and play just for fun and have some relax. My plan would be to sell the Petosa and with a little extra money buy the camillo. Thank you!

Here the specifications:

Petosa
3/4 LMM;
41 Keys, 16.5"(42cm) Key to Key, 3 Registers
120 Bass Buttons, 2 Registers

Camillo
4/5 LMMH
41 Keys, 19"(49cm) Key to Key, 12 Registers
120 Bass Buttons, 7 Registers

I am not too familiar with either instrument. It’s possible the petosa may have higher quality in some areas. But I think the Camillo has much more in the sense of features and tone options and is likely to have a quality level that is completely adequate for your use. I would struggle with a keyboard less than 17” and would consider the upgrade just on that basis alone.
