The Hohner Special 20 is a harmonica/harp that comes in all of the Western keys. The one that I've used was in the standard key of C, which is probably the Special 20 that you'll see the most of out there. For a diatonic harmonica, this kind is definitely up there with the best of them. They seem to be quite popular, although I don't personal...
The Hohner HH-154 Harmonica Holder is a simple contraption that allows you to play harmonica and guitar at the same time. I’ve had one of these for a couple of years, and it’s a nice one because it can hold virtually any harmonica including larger chromatic harmonicas. I’m using it with a set of Hohner harmonicas that I’ve got one of each key ...
The Hohner Marine Band is a basic diatonic harmonica that is in the key of C. I don't believe that they make this in other keys, but I could be mistaken about this. It's a pretty thin harmonica compared to the other ones that I have and I have used, but it definitely doesn't have a thin sound. Although I don't claim to be a professional harmo...
The Hohner Pocket Pal is a simple diatonic harmonica. Hohner has marketed it as a harmonica that you can bring on the go, hence the name 'Pocket Pal.' However, there is really no difference between this and other diatonic harmonica, as any would be small enough to bring on the move. The Pocket Pal comes in the key of C, and I'm not sure if th...
Not being a very experienced harmonica player, I wanted to find out more about which models were good and why. Hohner is a name that consistently popped up, and being a big blues fan, I really wanted to check this one out. I'm glad I did. The main features of this harmonica that separate it from the so-called Marine Brand harps are the ability t...
The Hohner Chromatica is a unique harmonica in the fact that it is a chromatic harmonica and is an extra large size. Most harmonicas are diatonic, meaning that they are limited to a single key, but the Hohner Chromatica contains every note in the western scales and covers about three octaves and 35 holes. I've been using the Hohner Chromatica fo...
The Hohner Bob Dylan Signature harmonica is a harp in the key of C that was designed by both Dylan and Hohner. While this is a great sounding harmonica, it is really more of a collector's item as it has a variety of things that come with the harmonica itself, including a decorative case and box with it. I believe that a certain number of these w...
I've had the Hohner Blues Harp harmonica for about a year and it has definitley served me well in trying to learn the harmonica. These harps come in a variety of different keys, but the one I have is in the key of C. Not only is this a good looking harmonica on the outside of it, but it also has a great sound to it and is very easy to play. It f...
Instead, I used the diatonic, I took advantage of relatively affordable (for a color!) To try. The design is a copy-paste the Golden Melody, except for one thing: the size o_O The color is already large enough for most but there is a monster! Almost double that of a diatonic, and I speak no holes! Apart from...
The most: * A warm, * Nice design, close to the Marine Band with bamboo and more * Slides easy on the lips * Easy alterations * Factory set properly * Finish blades much better than the midrange hohner * Overblow them out with ease * The overdraws too! * The handy little cas...
