Cheap good fun
Love my harmonica. Most of my playing is for dolphins who are a less discerning audience.

Good and bad !
We won't go far wrong with the !Hohner marine band"... The one i got came 'just' in the box, and had a duff reed.Luckily it was exchanged with no fuss. The replacement also came just in the box. This was fine ,as expected.If you look you will find that in the picture on many of the adverts, the 'box comes attached to a card.Now i dont know if they all should or not.But as someone wrote in a review....they only received the box, and up on opening it, discovered it was empty.This makes me think, maybe the one i sent back was sent out to the next customer ? and this could be the reason for not getting the box on the card ? or it could be to save on postage. either way,..next time i purchase one i will make sure i will be getting it 'on the card'. In other words, NOT PREVIOUSLEY USED .

1896 marine band is THE best blues harmonica on the market today
1896 marine band is THE best blues harmonica on the market today. It's the cheaper end of the pro series.Over many many years had them all for blues there is nothing close.The only problem I have is buying from Amazon direct. Very good and everything will use again because it may only have been a one off BUT I bought ia 1896 marine band and it looked like it had had someone blow it. It works well so no complaints but when I opened it I could tell straight away.For the record I have been playing blues harp on and off prof for over 35 years, so I do have some idea a

Great harps
Lots of splitting hairs over harmonicas. Don’t get involved in all the talk , buy one it will sound great so long as you play it

Fine starter Harp
Bought this Harp in key of A. I, intend getting another couple of keys depending on how I get on, and, so far so good, trying to practice a little every day, and most of all enjoying it. Go out and buy one, you won,t find a cheaper instrument out there than the Harp, and it doesn,t take up as much space as my drum kit, and you can keep it in your pocket, No Cases To Lug Around.

Rubbish - 6 motnhs and still can't play the damm thing!
The product is great, looks good and I'm sure would sound fantastic in the mouth or somebody with a vague bit of talent.I've tried but I'm just not very good...was my first lockdown project which has now been superseded. It sits on my bedside cabinet now ... maybe one day ...

A happy purchase.
It has been many years since I even possessed a Harmonica never mind played one.When I saw it I couldn't resist a purchase and I'm very happy I did.I can't exactly say I can play it but it's fairly easy for me to get a good tune out of it.It has a full and somewhat emotive sound and can be quite loud.Build quality is excellent and the supplied case does a good job of protecting it.

Perfect if you're looking to improve your harmonica game
I was a beginner and after a couple of months (yea months) I was looking to find something that would have felt a bit better and this harmonica was the answer. Great build, solid, nice feel, the wooden harp gives it an almost "Premium" kind of feeling. I love it!
