Ranco accordions?

Date: Dec 3, 2009

i know that the ex-accordion player of invicto has one, he is now the accordion player of the hometown boys but i dont know if he still plays it, listen to the old invicto songs and u can hear it

these acordions are ok, but i would rather have a hohner. Even a Panther has better sound.

they are not that great, get a baffetti instead

My brother played a Hohner for many years, so recently he decided to try a Ranco. What he told me is he didn't care for it and the sound was nothing compared to a hohner or a baffetti. He switched back to the hohner and sold the Ranco to a guy that plays norteno music. Seems to fit that norteno style better than conjunto.

Incase you all are interested here are a few videos of Ranco accordions in action.
