The result of over 100 years of tradition and German craftsmanship, it is still the number one choice of top professionals and the most recognizable model all over the world, known for its full tone and wood comb. Play the Marine Band and be a part of history. Available in 12 major keys, lower and higher octave and minor tunings. Reeds: 40 Reed plates: Brass; 0.9 mm Comb: Wood Length in cm: approx. 15.9 This is the essence of the Classic line -- traditional values and cutting edge technology. Extremely precise tools minimize air loss and ensure a quicker response and bigger volume. As always, each Classic harmonica is exclusively handmade. Horner's diatonic harmonicas set the industry standard through their high quality construction, excellent response and unsurpassed tone. Often called "Blues Harps", they have been a fixture as melody and accompaniment instruments in blues, rock, country, and folk bands, as well as many other styles of music and musical ensembles. Richter tuning and undivided air channels allow for bending and overblowing the reeds, creating the signature wailing sound typical of the harmonica

Great original product very high quality

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by H***Y on 16 October 2024*

Es ist eine großartige Mundharmonika für Anfänger als auch fortgeschrittene Spieler. Der Kaufgrund war ihre Beliebtheit in Musikerkreisen und das Versprechen einer hervorragenden Klangqualität. Sie überzeugt durch eine stabile Verarbeitung und einen warmen, vollen Klang. Besonders positiv ist der einfache Spielkomfort. Die Töne lassen sich leicht anblasen, und die Mundharmonika liegt gut in der Hand. Ein kleiner Kritikpunkt wäre die etwas simplere Optik, die nicht jedem gefallen könnte. Ich vergebe 5 von 5 Sternen. Sie ist einfach zu spielen und bietet eine tolle Klangqualität zu einem fairen Preis.
