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.
