Unboxing my new 2021 accordion, the Bravo ii 48 Hohner accordion. This new accordion from Hohner was given to me by the company as they welcomed me to the Hohner accordion family last week. All the hard work we have been doing for the accordion community is finally paying off and I couldn't be more excited to work with a company like this!

Congratulations! So happy hearing you playing again. Hohner, thank you for recognizing this unique talent. The accordion needs this musician.

Aw Robert, thank you so much man! Feels good to be back... It's been a tough break having to sit around and watch everyone else enjoying it so much but I'm slowly working my way back. Appreciate all the support brother, you're the man!

@sebastianbravo8829 3 года назад

it's so inspiring to watch you playing in that spot where you use to meditate, congrats for your new accordion! it reminds me of my first accordion that was also a 48 bass model by Hohner. And that wallride, oh man you even took your front foot off the board in the air and landed it perfectly! This is the best video in your channel by far, lots of emotion and happiness put togheter in an accordion video. Congrats Denny, you are taking the accordion to a new generation!

@SqueezeandThanks 3 года назад

Love you brother! I knew you'd get a kick out of the skating portion, haha it felt great to hop on a board again. I remember hearing somewhere not too long ago that wall rides are similar to manuals so I kept that in mind and somehow that resulted in the "ollie north wall ride"... Haha oh well! I'm glad you enjoyed this so much and enjoyed all the storytelling and emotion. Felt really amazing seeing it all come together, especially after taking so much time off. Hope you're enjoying the summer and once again, congrats on the huge accomplishment with your competition!

Thank you for this heartwarming intimate video. You are so deserving of this sponsorship and it’s so great to see you so happy. Gives me a little hope for my own musical journey. Thank you Denny and thank you Hohner for making this man’s beautiful dream come true, grow,and flourish, as he continues to so generously share it with all who come into contact with him and his music in whatever form. Be it his live performance, or his incredibly creative team efforts with his videos here online. ❤️

Love this so much Paul, this is beautiful to read. I'm so grateful that something finally clicked, and it was honestly when I least expected it to. I needed something like this to lift me back up again. Hope you've been finding the time to play and are enjoying what's left of the summer. Much love brother, I appreciate the support you show beyond words my friend!

I just recently got a German Hohner xtreme and a Cii because I injured my back.. I hadn’t picked up my gabbanelli in 2 years it’s nice to see Hohner understands that we need them.

@SqueezeandThanks Год назад

Happy to hear you found something to allow you to keep playing CeeJay! The accordion can definitely take its toll on the body. I wish I knew the importance of having an accordion that meets the needs without being too big, but it’s all part of the lesson I suppose. Definitely would love to make a video covering the topic of smaller accordions

@RockStarOscarStern634 2 года назад

Hohner did quite a good job w/ this little guy

@SqueezeandThanks 2 года назад

I’ll say! So many things to love about it 😊 One of my favorite little features is the ergonomic strap splitter 5:37, all accordions need this! I put my Roland on the other day and the sides of my neck really noticed the difference 😆

@Tcustoms Год назад

Love those little Hohners! Wonder how it holds up to the vintage ones... *cough cough, video idea, cough cough*

@SqueezeandThanks Год назад

They’re an okay box if you simply can’t afford something better that’s brand new… expect quality control issues since it’s a China box, no customer service/warranty, and parts breaking that will need to be replaced or fixed. I’ve had quality control issues I’ve found on multiple boxes with certain notes not being as powerful as others in certain situations… a reed that broke or became “unstable” and needed to order the part and replace it myself… the plastic buckle on the bass strap broke… and the bellows developed a good sized hole in the one corner where it seals up… Compared to vintage Hohners, it’s tough to say. They used better reeds when they were made in Germany so many years ago. Some of the newer more premium models Hohner carries have a better reed quality but it’s tough to find those models being sold in the states since Hohner global and Hohner US are somewhat in competition with each other since the US brand was sold to a bigger distribution company… Pretty sure that’s why no shops in the US carry those premium models made in Germany.

@Tcustoms Год назад

@@SqueezeandThanks wow, thanks for this beautiful essay XD. I have an old hohner carmen that’s fairly beat up but it has potential if I decide to restore it. Made a video on restoring the treble side but got no views. Might stray away from the instrument for awhile

Dude I bought a Hohner Bravo III. About 5 years ago. Red. It was Awesome. I sold it for $1,200 and got a 41/120 Planet Squeezebox. While the larger one packs a punch I sure miss that Hohner. Seeing you unbox that new one has given me the Fever Again Bad! Good video.

Congrats dear sir for your new accordion Please let me know what is your opinion about the digital FR4x

@SqueezeandThanks 3 года назад

Thank you Isaac! The fr4x I have is just okay compared to the 8x... I feel like they skimped on the bellows a bit, or at least it feels like it. The 8x has mechanical bellows and the 4x is more like a steady leak with a bellow sensor... Idk if you plan on making a lot of videos or recording, or even doing performances, the Rolands are great but other than that the Hohner's are a really great acoustic box.

@SqueezeandThanks 2 года назад

Hello Markhor! If size, weight and cost isnt an issue for you, I would invest a little more and get the 72, it will allow you to play more songs in different keys

@Martin-kx8yv 26 дней назад

Hey question, if i hold down notes like that on my left hand, and i play a melody on my right hand but nothing sounds does that mean the accordion is bad? if i play like stacatto on the left hand it works. im new to accordion heh thanks =)

@SqueezeandThanks 25 дней назад

@@Martin-kx8yv sometimes the pressure within the accordion bellows is allocated to the lower bass notes that causes them to sound and when that pressure is released, there isn’t a whole lot left for the higher notes and they can sound weak or sometimes not engage at all… is this what you’re referring to? Some cheaper accordions don’t have as much dynamic range capability in the reeds and they will not fire under lower pressure

i play an accordion and its heavy i have scoliosis and it get heavy while sitting

@SqueezeandThanks 9 месяцев назад

I’m sorry to hear that Bradley, what size accordion do you use? Although smaller sized used accordions are sometimes hard to find (since they mass produced 120 bass accordions in the mid 1900’s), I would recommended downsizing to something smaller like this 48 bass, or a 72 or even a lighter 3 reed 96 bass. If you look long enough and wait for the right one to come along, you might come across a good used one that’s smaller. Also consider using straps with a connecting back strap to secure the instrument to your body better if that doesn’t negatively affect the way it makes you feel. I’m praying that you’re able to find the right solution to accommodate your needs and allows you to play longer and without pain.
