The Amica Forte IV 120 BK silent is a solid, well-built instrument geared towards intermediate players or those stepping up from a smaller accordion. It's a great all-around choice – the silent keyboard is a bonus – and delivers a surprisingly full sound given its size and price point. A very practical option for students or gigging musicians needing portability.
