How much should I spend on a good used accordion?
A checked used accordion from an established brand like Hohner or Scandalli at Costa Instruments costs between 800 and 3,500 Euros – depending on size, condition and model. Cheaper used offers under 300 Euros without warranty are usually not a good investment.
Which accordion is right for beginners?
For beginners, we recommend an accordion with 72 or 96 bass from a proven brand like Hohner. It should be checked, ready to play and light enough. In our showroom in Berlin Prenzlauer Berg, we offer free advice and let you try out all instruments.
Where can I buy and try an accordion in Berlin?
At Costa Instruments at Buchholzer Str. 9 in Berlin Prenzlauer Berg. We have a showroom with checked used accordions for you to try out, our own workshop, and we offer advice without sales pressure.
Can I rent an accordion instead of buying one?
Yes. Costa Instruments offers an accordion rental service with a minimum term of 6 months – ideal for beginners who want to get to know the instrument before making a larger investment.
