This is a Lachenal 30-Key Anglo in C/G with steel reeds. It has been fitted with new pads, valves and straps, and tuned to concert pitch (A=440hz).

This model of Lachenal Anglo with metal ends and metal buttons is incredibly popular- possibly because it falls into a price range that not many other anglo concertinas do. This one is in tidy condition (apart from a couple of small areas of wear on the metalwork), and the bellows are in very good original condition.  It is pretty responsive and has a softer tone than you might expect from a lot of metal-ended concertinas. It’s priced a little cheaper than normal due to the fact that it’s a later-period Lachenal, but it really is a bargain at the price.
