Hi all. I need a smaller 72-bass for when I travel and, being only a hobbyist where the accordion is concerned, I'm looking for a good bang-for-the-buck accordion. Both Hohner and Weltmeister have (or have had) good reputations in the past for this kind of accordion. I've come across a used Hohner Bravo 72 for about half of retail price. But my understanding is that these are all made in China now and given the quality of Chinese-made accordions, I'm wary of buying this and discovering that it has sticky reeds or warped reed blocks or inefficient bellows, etc. I, unfortunately, can't play it before purchase.
So do any of you have a Hohner Bravo 72 and, if so, what are your impressions of it? Is it a good bang-for-the-buck? Or is it basically an over-priced Chinese accordion?
