Special order
September 27, 2018

Did a good job of finding a good quality large gig bag for my instrument but needed chasing one week on regarding delivery (cost £7.99). Would have been 5* if I had not had to chase.
Seller had the item ready to dispatch at point of order confirmation. Order confirmation received but no dispatch update email until i made an enquiry almost a week later. Item receuved the next day.

Borsini accordion
September 21, 2018

Absolutely delighted with my Borsini. I'd been looking for a quality accordion, at the right price, for some time and the Borsini fitted the bill perfectly.
Murray at The Reed Lounge has been great to deal with.
Overall, a great experience. I would definitely recommend.

Excellent service!
September 1, 2018

Bought a couple of boxes from Murray at Shrewsbury FF. Deal done, a couple of reeds tweaked and all sorted with cases and straps in a few hours on a festival site. Excellent service and I would definitely use The Reed Lounge again.

Duet Concertina
August 20, 2018

Friendly greeting, no pressure to buy, plenty of time to evaluate the Lachenal Duet Concertina. Concertina was in good condition, with new pads, minimal wear on bellows, easy to handle. Just need to learn how to play it!

A great personal experience
July 31, 2018

It was a great afternoon. I like the idea of an appointment system because it is like being in somebody's lounge in the house as there was just me and the friend I brought with me, and we felt we could spend hours there trying out Accordions. A very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere provided by Murray. Thanks Murray.

A good experience
July 14, 2018

Reed Lounge sold me the type of concertina I wanted for a reasonable price... a rebuilt rosewood Lachenal anglo with steel reeds. It was exactly what I expected, promptly and safely delivered. Altogether a positive experience!

Heretique CD is enjoyable
June 17, 2018

The Hetetique 1st CD was on Murray's stall at Halsway Manor, I paid by card, got receipt by email & got added to Reed Lounge mailing list. I am also enjoying the CD (!). A well oiled system.

BEAUTIFUL
May 15, 2018

I have just started learning the English Concertina and was pleased to find this sweet Lachenal on the Reed Lounge web site.
It arrived within 48 hours of ordering and was carefully packed and presented.
It is in immaculate condition and I absolutely love playing it.
A great little instrument that suits my needs.

Top trade-in
April 29, 2018

Impulse buys are often disastrous, but no regrets over my quick-fire decision to part exchange my DG Loffet for a Saltarelle upgrade. An excellent deal. Five-star service

Reed lounge
April 11, 2018

Service very good. Spoke to very helpful gentleman on 'phone and order processed immediately. If there was a small problem it was with their carrier who took 4 days to deliver an alleged 48 hour service!

A very classy accordion!
March 16, 2018

I think this is a seriously good accordion. I love its classy black look; the open grille style; the extra sound scrolls and its red bellows!

It sounds beautiful. Both sides are very quick to respond and the registers give me a lot more to explore than my original Pigini P30 Cherrywood.

I wondered if, as a novice, I would immediately appreciate the bigger more 'grown-up' accordion, but I do.

I bought this during Celtic Connections in Glasgow in January. I greatly enjoyed my experience of buying this from Alan Shute there, and have enjoyed playing it ever since.

From the first few weeks of practicing I know this has been a good purchase and I hope in time to do it justice.
