Hi Bob, Feedback regarding the Tedrow G/D I purchased from Jxxx in the USA.
I have had the concertina now for two days and what an excellent instrument it is proving to be. Air tight (unlike my XXXX anglo), reeds economical with air. Excellent tone and first class workmanship.
In summary a superb instrument.
Regards, Mxxx (from the UK).

Bob,
Just a note to let you know that my concertina arrived this past Wednesday. Everything was fine...Great packing job! The sound is great, and well balanced across the range of the instrument. It held its own very well in a strong session at a crowded pub. I received many complements on the fretwork, sound, overall appearance, and even the smell ( Yes. We're the sort of people who smell our instruments, I'm ashamed to admit.)!

Thank you very much. It was well worth the wait, and I will recommend you to all and sundry seeking a worthy instrument.

I believe the plan was for you to charge my credit card? If you had a different idea, please let me know.

Regards,
xxxxxxxxx

happy new owner

Hi,Bob
I recieved the concertina yesterday, and have only put it down to eat and sleep. The look, feel, and sound are all that I could have wanted and more. I am amazed at how LOUD this box is! The action is so swift, and the response so lively that I will have to re-learn some habits that I developed on the third-hand Bastari that I learned on and have played for these last 5 or 6 years. The bellows are butter smooth, much to my surprise. I had expected to have to spend some time easing them in but that won't be necessary. The gold tooling adds just the right touch of elegance that I imagined it would. Beautiful work!

All said, I am delighted with my new box and I am sure that it will last throughout my lifetime and beyond.

A thousand thanks and may you live a long and satisfying life.

So, where have I been?

Still here. I am designing a traditional reeded concertina for the rest of the tour. Stay tuned!

Bob Tedrow
