I have saw a Weltmeister accordion on sale at a pawn shop here in New Mexico for $175 my question is is this a good accordion for the price? It looks to be in pretty fair shape and my friend tried it and it has good sound too it. Do any current artists out there use this type of accordion? Please help me out here before i decide to buy Thanxs.

Listen man. I have a hohner accordion Corona II as well. My opinion is that you should invest in that Weltmeister accordion. More groups who play conjunto are starting to use them. At the moment I do not have a Weltmeister, but I just tried it yesterday with Boni Mauricio and it plays good.


Check out the questionaire I posted on Reyes Accordion titled (Boni Mauricio-Weltmeister Accordion-Puro Conjunto.) You should be able to get more feedback there.

By the way some of the musicians that I know that use that accordion are:


Los Hometown Boys Accordionist


Flaco Jimenez


Boni Mauricio


By the way, the accordionist for Los Hometown Boys has a hohner accordion and A Gabanelli, but he says he prefers the Weltmeister. Boni told me that he has no problems with it, and proved it! Trust me if the accordion can take a beating after Boni plays with it, its defenitely a good brand.

I believe Weltmeisters are good accodrions.  I myself use one on stage that i sdry tuned.  I've recieved many compliments on its' sounds.  I would recommend you give it a chnace, you won't be dissapointed.


Conjunto is right in that more artists are using them now-a-days.  I know Angel Flores uses them for a fact and I've also seen Boni use one.  Give it a shot my friend.
