This 1930s Wheatstone English Concertina represents a golden era of manufacturing by Charles Wheatstone & Co., highly prized for its fast action, top-tier steel reeds, and exceptional craftsmanship. Instruments from this decade benefit from refined engineering despite lower production volumes caused by the Great Depression.

Concertina Return Policy: all sales are final on shipped concertinas. Despite careful packing, rough handling during shipping can cause issues that were not previously present - often without visible damage to the instrument or package (meaning we cannot generally file a damage claim with the shipper). For instruments purchased in our store, or through our website with local pickup, our 7-day return policy applies, unless otherwise indicated.
