(Jigs) Mac's Fancy, The Yellow Wattle - Concertina
I recorded this set again using a Edgley 'Heritage model' concertina. It's a good set!
I had recorded this set using a Ab/Eb Jeffries concertina, a few months ago.

I learned the first tune when I joined a session in Hyogo (Japan) in May.

I learned this tune from my friend in May. The B part is difficult for me to play smoothly...

I learned this set when I joined a session in Hyogo (Japan) in May. I can't play both reels on the flute. So, I played them on the concertina.
I played my Edgley concertina (Heritage model) that I had bought recently. I haven't got used to playing it yet...
I bought a C/G anglo concertina from Frank Edgley in September, 2015. It'a a Heritage model which has concertina reeds.
Layout : Modified Wheatsone layout
Reedpan : Radial reedpan
Bellows : 7 fold bellows
Ends : Metal ends
Keys : 30 Delrin keys
It plays loud and brightly. I can play it as if I played a Suttner concertina. I guess the tone of Suttner concertinas is a little brighter than the one of Edgley Heritage models.
Although it isn't as good as Dipper or Jeffries, I guess it's worth the price.
It has riveted concertina reeds (reed tongues are riveted on reed frames) and hook action. And it has wider bellows frames than our other concertinas.
Because its B-flat reed on the left-hand side had metallic tinkling sound when I received it, I realigned the reed using a small blade according to Frank's advice. At last, it stopped making tinkling sound. Thanks, Frank!
And I adjusted its low-G reed on the left-hand side because it wasn't very responsive. Other reeds that I use when I play Irish music were responsive.
Frank offers good custom-fitted cases or waterproof storm cases. I chose the latter because it's cheaper than the former.
P.S.
I sold this concertina to a Japanese concertina player after I had enjoyed playing it.
