General

Hohner definitely picked an accurate slogan for the Chrometta line in 'make it look easy'. The Chrometta 14 was designed to allow beginners to play their first songs in no time. Thanks to the extra wide channel openings, it's much easier to play individual notes. Hohner knows better than anyone how to get people excited for instruments like this. Its clever design reveals they thought of everything. The ergonomic mouthpiece directs the air directly to the reeds, and allows the harmonica to slide easily along your lips.

Hohner Chrometta 14

The Chrometta owes its name, of course, to the fact that it's a chromatic harmonica with 14 holes. Contrary to a diatonic harmonica, a chromatic harmonica has a slide that changes the notes on the harmonica. In theory, the harmonica is tuned in C, but as it has an impressive range of 3.5 octaves (56 notes), that loses its relevance, as virtually any note you'd need is available to you. As such, you'll be hard pressed to find a song you can't play along to. All in all, the harmonica is a great instrument that is played by many great musicians, such as Stevie Wonder, for instance.

Hohner quality

Hohner is the biggest harmonica manufacturer there is, and has been for about a century and a half. Yes, the German harmonica mogul has done well for itself over the past fifteen decades. All that accumulated knowledge and experience is now combined in the Chrometta 14. Only the best materials were used in creating this instrument. The covers are made of stainless steel, and the reeds are made of brass. as well as an ABS plastic comb, which does not swell up, extending its lifespan considerably compared to a wooden comb. Finally, this chromatic harmonica features a zigzag slide construction.

Wrote the following about Hohner Chrometta 14 harmonica
Hoewel ik nooit een Chromatische Harmonika had maar gewoon een diatonische had ik geen probleem om deze te bespelen. Ze klinkt iets luider en minder scherp als een gewone mondharmonika. Het enigste probleem dat ik heb; er zijn blijkbaar geen muziek boeken voor een Chromatische harmonika.
Voor de rest, geweldig.

Ik ben zeer tevreden over deze aankoop. Bezit ook een 8-en 12 gaats uit de Chrometta-reeks. Prima mondharmonica's voor deze prijs. Ik moest alleen een beetje wennen aan de grote gaten, maar speelgemak, toon en volume zijn prima! Niet zo luchtdicht als mijn Hohner CX-12 natuurlijk, maar zeer behoorlijk voor zo'n 'oud ontwerp'. Lijkt me ook een bijzonder degelijke constructie met weinig kopzorgen over onderhoud.
Geen echte minpunten: de schuif is niet echt geschikt voor zeer snel spel, maar doet goed zijn werk. Het mondstuk voelt wat dikker aan dat gemiddeld, maar glijdt zeer goed onder de lippen. De Chrometta is vooral bedoeld voor beginners (begrijp ik), maar ook mensen zoals ik met een langere staat van dienst kunnen er veel plezier aan beleven. Recht uit de doos bespeelbaar, zonder ook maar 1 haperende toon, dat is zelfs voor veel duurdere mondharmonica's niet zo vanzelfsprekend. Zonder meer een aanrader!

quelque peu cabossé à la réception.le 12 trous me semble plus adapté pour un débutant. La tige de la tirette grillagée est de faible qualité.

quant au son, je le teste et la qualité n'est pas en rapport ave le prix.

Mooi instrument van Hohner. Wat mij verbaast is dat deze mondharmonica loepzuiver gestemd is in tegenstelling tot de melodica's van Hohner die zeer onzuiver geleverd worden. Wat dat betreft dus prettig verrast. Een iets steviger hoesje was prettig geweest. De sound is fantastisch!

Heerlijk instrument. Zeker voor deze prijs. Zeker voor een beginnende speler die wel serieus is om het te leren. Uiteraard ook weer snelle levering, compleet met hoes en boekje.
