HOHNER Richter Tuning Classic Line Harmonica -- Marine Band Deluxe model

Item Details:-

Hohner diatonic harmonicas are of the highest quality and combine excellent response with great sound. These Richter harmonicas are single note instruments and are recognised by their undivided channel openings, which allow the airflow to pass over both blow and draw reeds simultaneously.

This permits the techniques known as bending (enabling the player to lower the pitch of certain notes and create the typical bluesy wailing sound), as well as overblowing (which produces the missing chromatic notes). Richter harmonicas are often known as "Blues Harps" and mainly used as melody instruments in blues, folk, country and rock music.

The name "Marine Band" is synonymous with a long and successful tradition of high quality harmonica manufacture. Since 1896, discerning professionals in search of an unmistakeable and unique sound have chosen the Hohner Marine Band as their harmonica.

This Marine Band Deluxe combines this legendary character with a variety of state of the art improvements which optimize handling and ensure greater volume and faster response, while retaining the essential richness and power. It is ideal for traditional styles as well as modern techniques.
