Description of product

Marine Band diatonic harmonicas are the flagship of the Hohner brand. The first model was introduced to the American market in 1896 and there are few country, blues or rock n roll legends who didn't use one in their time (Little Walter, Paul Butterfield, Bob Dylan...). The line with this name represents the quality, German-made harmonicas that to this day are the clear first choice of many professional musicians - whether they are classic models (1896) or more modern ones (Crossover).

The sound of the Marine Band 1896 harmonica is firmly linked to the sound of the blues from its American origins to the present day. No wonder - it uses an almost unchanged patented concept from 1896. It is thus able to express with intensity the intimate human feelings inherent in the blues. The body of the instrument is made of double varnished pear wood, i.e. it is protected against moisture absorption and expansion. The harmonica also features rounded stainless steel covers with side holes, twenty brass heads, 0.9 mm thick brass slices and a range of three octaves.
