Hohner Marine Band Crossover C

Great beginners harp. Will soon have you swooning to its sweet tones. Also very much like the belt pouch that comes with it - just what you need to take it everywhere and pull it out whenever a spare minute (or few) Wish I'd had such a thing for a harp I lost long ago hitch-hiking through the UK!

Don't know why it should cost that much and why people assume this is a premium harp. I played through it, different sound indeed but not something that appeals to me. Back to my Special 20 which sounds much more pure and, how to say it, less kitschy...

This is my favorite harmonica. You can easily modify the harmonica i a way you like because they have constructed it for modifications; it is screwed together, not nailed. Making it quite easy to adjust it even for bending notes upwards, that means that you can play it chromatically - of course after a lot of training!

This has been a wonderful first harmonica. I had some trouble wherein the reeds would occasionally not respond when I first bought it, but no trouble now. I've been learning to play from the online resources of Adam Gussow and Chris Kramer and I have enjoyed using this harmonica. The construction is robust and the finish quality gives this harmonica nice mouth feel. I recommend this harmonica.

This harp is exactly what you should expect from Hohner. Tough, sturdy, and the comb is a big improvement. This baby sustains well and bending notes is easy. The sound is sweet and soulful. I’m primarily a folk rock musician, and Hohner is my go to harmonica, though there are other harps out there that are almost as good. Just my opinion. And of course, Thomann’s unbeatable service and speedy delivery is why I order from them and not someone else.
