Hohner 1896 Marine Band Harmonica A Key
When you want a rich, authentic sound for the blues and other early 20th-century music, use the original blues harp. First released in 1896, this Hohner harmonica was made for European folk but quickly adopted by the rapidly developing American blues movement. While other Hohner Marine Band harmonica and blues harmonica prototypes. have sprouted up, the #1896 remains the standard. The design remains the same as when it was introduced — Hohner even still assembles the harmonica with nails. It’s like playing a piece of music history!
A diatonic harmonica in the key of A is perfect for E blues, and this one delivers a fullness and warmth unlike any other. The brass reeds, pearwood comb and nickel-plated stainless steel covers offer an excellent combination of tone and durability. Every time you break into a lick or solo, you’ll feel the same depth of emotions that blues legends did. It ships fast and free so you can experience true blues.
