The Reed Lounge

I think accordions are each rather unique so sound and play very differently. I don't think you can beat trying out as many as possible with different tunings and sizes to narrow the field ahead of making an appointment to try them out at the Reed Lounge before purchase. That was my experience, and Murray was extremely helpful in providing great advice. I'm still getting used to my new accordion, but I think I am already becoming a better player for having it. My audiences love it too, because the tone is very pure and well balanced. I have no hesitation in recommending The Reed Lounge.

I am glad to have chosen to buy from The Reed Lounge.

The online shopping system was very easy to use and my order got processed on the next day. There was some issue with my first order, and Murray was very helpful and provided useful suggestions to resolve the problem. The overall process was very smooth.

After payment was confirmed, my concertina got checked and packed, and passed to the courier in reasonable time. It was well packed and arrived in good shape. The restoration was done perfectly and the sound is so nice that me and my wife fell in love with it immediately.

I am satisfied with the purchase and would highly recommend to give a call to Murray if you are looking for a squeeze box.

In an ideal world one would pick up and play an instrument before laying out good money. But this is a Covid world and physical contact is a thing of the past so I had to put my trust in Murray.
In phone calls and emails he was most helpful. He made a recording so that I could hear the difference between the two boxes and make my decision.
It arrived, very well packed and I was delighted.
There is, however, a problem with two buttons - one won't sound on the pull and the other is silent on the push. Fortunately neither are frequently used notes - for me at any rate, I am an absolute novice. I called Murray to report the fault and he said he could fix it easily in minutes.
I'm sure he can. When able to, I intend to drive the 200 miles or so to meet Murray. Hopefully I'll be able to watch him do the fix. And I look forward to shaking his hand. I love my Lachenal. Thank you Murray.

Just received a gorgeous Maugein acordion from Murray, excellent condition, beyond my expectations for a small model...
I was quite nervous buying over the Internet with what to me was a large sum of money but Murray never bullied me or used hard sell tactics, he put my nerves re couriers, complaints at rest with his totally professional yet friendly manner and witjin days i am thrilled to be playing such a lovely box, playability and sound perfectly as described... Can't recommended enough especially after some experiences ive had in the past... Many thanks

This accordion is perfect for me. I had a 48bass and wanted a greater range of chords but didn't want a heavier instrument as I could only just pick up the 48bass. This compact 60bass is exactly what I needed and it has a much mellower tone which I love. Because of Covid I wasn't able to visit Reed Lounge to try it before purchase but I was confident that any instrument Murray was selling would be in perfect condition. And it is.
