The McNeela (C#/D) Original Accordion

“Very happy with my C#/D button accordion.” - Charles K.

Our 23 button Original accordion is a lightweight, wooden frame accordion, and is an affordable, entry-level accordion aimed at beginner and intermediate players, in the key of C#/D

Simply put, this means that the outer row of buttons is in the key of C#, and the inner row is in D. This setup makes all the notes of the chromatic scale available to you, and allows you to play a wide variety of tunes in any number of keys.

We’ve given this accordion quality, Czech-made steel reeds as we find they're particularly good at producing the sounds you want for traditional Irish music.

And it has large, smooth pearlescent buttons on a flat fingerboard with a thumb groove for ease of play, and it comes with adjustable hand and shoulder straps for added comfort.

This beautifully crafted, wooden accordion is effortlessly responsive, and the rich layered sound it generates makes it the ideal instrument for playing traditional Irish music.

Tuned for Irish Trad

C#/D is the tuning of choice for players who prefer the traditional 'press and draw' style of playing. It's commonly used in the Irish dance music of the ‘Sliabh Luachra’ style, where the emphasis is on punchy rhythms. And its edgy sound and rhythmic drive is perfect for playing lively slides and polkas.

Supremely Comfortable & Easy to Play

Your accordion has large, smooth pearlescent buttons, an adjustable bass strap and a thumb grooved fingerboard for ease of play. This reduces any strain, and means you can focus more fully on the music you’re playing.

Quality Sound & Superior Finish

It's made from an American cherry wood frame and finish, with carefully selected, hand-crafted, Czech reeds and a C#/D bass layout. This is a premium accordion crafted with quality materials that’s designed and made to last.
