Advice Which instrument to start with?

3 Upvotes

Hi, I’ve wanted to learn the accordion for as long as I can remember. I’ve finally set myself a goal to start but have no idea how. I’m looking for advice on the right instrument to buy for an absolute beginner. Do I buy a piano or button accordion? I have no expectations or particular goals, I’ll be happy just to get the basics and learn simple tunes for now so don’t want to overwhelm myself with anything over complicated. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
