Review: Great Harmonica everything I expected and more. - I have been playing diatonic harmonics for over 55 years and chromatic for about 10 years. I have been considering buying a Hohner CX12 for sometime and finally found them on sale for under $ 200.00. Although there are some bad reviews posted about sticky reeds and poor craftsmanship. I did not find this to be the case. Every note plays very well and sounds great. The slide is very responsive. The innovative design, all plastic body, large slide button and large sound holes take a little getting used to. But I got over that very quickly. Remember that all harmonicas have to be gently broken in and chromatic harmonics take longer. Review: A Fantastic Chromatic Harmonica !! - The Hohner CX-12 is an awesome instrument that has the sound and playability features that are highly-valued by professional players. As with ALL Chromatics, you must warm the instrument before it will play well. Chromatics have thin pieces of plastic over many of the reeds, these are called 'windsavers' -- if you play the instrument cold, the 'windsavers' will stick because of the condensation of your warm breath into the cold reed plate. You can avoid this problem by gently warming the harmonica before playing it. Some players put the harmonica under their arm for several minutes, others use a heating pad set on 'low'... No microwave, No oven, No high heat of any kind. Warm it to body temperature only -- high heat will ruin it. For those complaining about some of the notes not sounding, remember that not all reeds are the same. You must learn how to blow the higher notes -- it takes practice and patience. Most problems are the player's problem, not the harmonica's problem. The CX-12 is a professional quality instrument that preferred over many more expensive models, due to its sound projection and its unique design that allows it to be taken apart easily with no tools for cleaning and normal maintenance. I own several of these and are my go-to harmonica's over instruments costing twice or three times as much. ## Features - Comb and reed plate assembly simply slots into housing, permitting tool-less disassembly and reassembly - The plastic cover/mouthpiece unit is extremely airtight for a unique sound and fast response - Reliable performance under all climate conditions thanks to resilient plastic comb - Key of C ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002F4TN2 | | Brand | Hohner | | Brand Name | Hohner | | Color | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 224 Reviews | | Finish Type | Polished | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00190786084742, 04009126028192 | | Included Components | Case, Mouthpiece | | Instrument Key | C | | Item Dimensions | 9 x 3 x 1.5 inches | | Item Type Name | 7545 CX-12 Chromatic Harmonic, Key of C | | Item Weight | 0.19 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Hohner Inc, USA | | Manufacturer Part Number | 7545-C | | Material | Stainless Steel | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | Hohner | | Model Number | 7545-C | | Style | Key | | UPC | 190786084742 133587112061 | | Warranty Description | 90 days. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hohner - **Color:** Silver - **Instrument Key:** C - **Material:** Plastic,Silver - **Style:** Key ## Images ![Hohner Accordions Hohner Harmonica, Silver (7545-C) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ss78wYgtL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: where can one buy a used Cx12 chromonica?** A: We do not sell any used harmonicas. I would search the web for any deals. Thanks. **Q: Is it manufactured in Germany?** A: It says on the case it's made in Germany. It's also a great instrument. **Q: It come with case?** A: The CX-12 comes with Hohner's standard hard case which protects it very well. Great chromatic! **Q: What is low c? is this the same as a regular key of c chromatic** A: This is an 'industry standard' three octave chromatic harmonica. I have several 3- and 4-octave chromatics, from at least three brands, and the Hohner CX-12 is one of my regular go-to's. Easy to play, great tone (for my ears anyway!), easy to bend, easy to disassemble and clean. I actually keep one in my car to play along with the radio from time to time! All in all, a very good buy. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Harmonica everything I expected and more. *by P***R on April 17, 2022* I have been playing diatonic harmonics for over 55 years and chromatic for about 10 years.

Overall: It's a good harp, but not "done" in its design.
