The Hohner Marine Band Classic

Hohner is the biggest player in the harmonica market. The German brand owes this to the Marine Band, which was introduced in 1896. This model is still well-liked by professional harmonica players, but in addition, it is also accessible to people who are just starting to play this instrument. The harmonica features a lacquered pearwood comb. This gives the harmonica that warm, raw sound that characterises the instrument. The sound is enhanced by the stainless steel cover plates. These are beautifully finished with numbering of holes and beautiful engraving. The covers are designed to create a perfect balance between a good grip and a great sound. The sound originates from the twenty brass reeds attached to the brass tuning plate. The tongues have a thickness of 0.9 millimetres and again you will find a well-balanced ratio. This time between the good volume and the flexibility of the reeds. The flexibility allows the tones to be bent. This way, you can make the 'whining' harmonica stand out even more clearly and minor chords and solos become a delight to the ear.
