Review: The Best out of the box Blues harmonica. - The best, most versatile (out of the box) harmonica for Blues style that you can purchase. Easy to play with great tonal qualities. Undoubtedly, the original marine bands are the best of the best, but require some slight alterations to the reeds and comb to improve playability…..so the crossover harmonica’s are the closest to that sound in there nature form….Play them softly!
Review: Lovely harmonica! - I just started playing the Harmonica, I can play a few tunes etc. I initially bought a budget model to see if I liked playing harmonica, but I had trouble getting the higher notes to sound, which I later discovered was probably my fault. Anyway, I returned this harmonica and decided to splash out on a more expensive instrument and choose this one after watching lots of comparison videos on YouTube. All I can say is I am delighted with my purchase. You can tell this instrument is quality as soon.as you start playing it. Lovely sound, looks great and you even get a free month's worth of online lessons. What more could you ask? I've since bought another in the key of A and am equally impressed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Should I get this harmonica, the marine band harmonica, or the special 20? Which one is better?**
A: There is no easy answer to that question.  The Marine Band is the classic blues harmonica.  The Crossover is a wonderful harmonica with a great sound.  Personally, I think that it is a better built harmonica.  However, it is a tad small in size for my taste.  It isn't as comfortable as other harmonicas, at least until you get used to it.  The Special 20 is also a very nice harmonica - a lot more comfortable on the lips than the Marine Band.  It also sounds great.  So, it is a matter of personal taste.  These are all great harps.  That said, my favorite C harmonica is a Seidel 1847 Noble.  Unfortunately, those are kind of pricey.  The best C harp in the bang for the buck category is, in my humble opinion, a Seidel Blues Session - great sound, perfect feel in the hand, well made.  As I said, it is strictly a matter of personal preference.  The 3 Hohners you mentioned are all great.

**Q: Is this made in Germany?**
A: I have several and all of them were made in Germany.

**Q: What idsdrawing and bending?I know how to play the harmonica, but I don''t know this tewrm**
A: Drawing is inhaling and bending is what you do with your mouth to raise or lower the key a half step.

**Q: I see this one and another one that costs $115. Look the exact same. Any one know what the difference is?**
A: I don't know which other harp you are looking at but if it is a Crossover, it should be the same.  Depends on which key you are looking at as to the price.  Some of the Crossovers are higher in different keys.  Or that's the way it was 4-5 years ago when I bought several Hohner Crossover harmonicas.  The price was about $10 a piece less then also.  By the way, they are great harps!

*by J***N on 12 November 2024*

Blues Harp. Ready to play out of the box. Most harps need reed adjusting before playing. Nice full deep vibration and well able for bending notes and overflowing. Airtight smooth cover plates with bamboo comb. Delighted with purchase. A+++
