Product Description

This economical 10-hole harmonica for all ages is a plastic body model designed for beginner level players in the rhythm & blues style. Diatonic, single reed harmonicas feature reeds tuned to produce the natural notes of the musical scale-without any additional sharps & flats (a diatonic instrument). They are ten-hole instruments with the four middle holes comprising a complete eight-note octave-the holes on either side permit chord playing. They are capable of producing bending & overblowing, which will allow the player to achieve sharps and flats.

5.0 out of 5 stars Start Out with This Harp, February 10, 2011
By 
Kathryn Johnson (Clarksdale, Mississippi) - See all my reviews
I give this harmonica five out of five stars in terms of its quality-to-cost ratio. I paid about six dollars for the thing in a drug store, buying it just on a lark, but I was immediately impressed with its ease of play and its tonal quality. Sure, it's not in the same category as the Marine Band or the Lee Oskar, but then again, it's about $25 cheaper. Personally, I find that it's quite easy to bend notes on it, although I see some think otherwise. It's comfortable on the lip, too (some people, especially beginning players, find the ridges on either side of the comb of the Marine Band and Hohner Blues Harp uncomfortable. I can't really comment on its durability since I haven't played it that much, but I will say that the Blues Band is NOT a toy (unlike other brands in the same price range). I've even gigged with it and it's sounded great. Anyway, nobody shouted out "Hey, that's just a six-buck harmonica! What the hell?!"
I'd certainly recommend that a beginner start out with something like this. It's the best low-end instrument I've ever played, and I've played a bunch.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent for Beginners, September 5, 2008
By 
Not a bad harp for a beginner. I recently bought it (my first harmonica) and within a week blew out two reeds. Has good sound, just make sure not to continually blow or draw really hard on one hole.

2.0 out of 5 stars eh..., January 25, 2009
worked well for one day. now day two, the 2 draw and 10 blow reeds dont work... also not very well crafted lots of air gaps the air is escaping and not even touching reeds. although hohner is a great brand save money and buy higher line of hohner.
