built 628 days ago
The accordion gained notoriety in the 1990s when Jaleel White portrayed an accordion-playing nerdy neighbor (Steve Urkel) on Family Matters. In the English-speaking pop-music world, it is often seen as the epitome of an "uncool" instrument parents force their children to learn in lieu of a different, "cooler" instrument such as the guitar; ... some popular rock music acts, including "Weird Al" Yankovic, Flogging Molly, They Might Be Giants, The Decemberists, The Arcade Fire, Devotchka, Calexico, The Tiger Lillies, and Gogol Bordello incorporate the accordion in their distinctive sound.

The problem with a makeshift accordion microphone is that the sounds from the accordion are often quite loud and therefore may overload the transmitter, resulting is distortion of the sound. With an accordion microphone from SD Systems, you eliminate all that. It is made especially for your instrument to capture the greatest sound.
