Hohner 1896 Marine Band Natural Minor Harmonica G

Hohner 1896 Marine Band Natural Minor Harmonica G Review



Hohner 1896 Marine Band Natural Minor Harmonica G Feature

  • 10-hole diatonicNatural minor tuningReeds: 20Reedplates: Brass; 0.9 mmPearwood combLength: 10cmHohner harmonicas feature:Improved reed profiles to increase reed life by over 200%Precision die punches to ensure reed plates with unparalleled air tightnessImproved tuning accuracy (through investment in innovative new tools)Extremely stable stainless steel covers that won't tarnish and are easy to cleanDynamic range and highest volume of most any commercially made harmonicaSuper-fast response at all
As expert harp player Steve Baker describes in his book, The Harp Handbook, the Marine Band harmonica in Natural Minor tuning means that "all the 3rds in the blow and draw chords...are tuned a semitone lower than the Richter system, so that both blow and draw chords are minor...." This "tuning is great for blues and rock numbers in minor keys..." and is "also very good for minor key reggae numbers, or similar spacey groove music...." In general, natural minor harps have a very bluesy, soulful sound that's perfect for playing minor blues, rock, country, reggae, pop, and jazz. This fabulous tuning is set up to play minor music easily without straining the lips, the lungs, or the mind! All of the notes and chords that were missing on the major diatonic harps for playing minor blues are right there on the natural minor. Natural minors are designed to be played in cross harp (draw), not straight harp (blow) style. In cross harp, many of the draw notes can be bent, allowing for a much more expressive, fluid style of playing. In addition, cross harp is a very popular style used by most players for today's music.The natural minor-tuned Hohner 1896 Marine Band Harmonica follows in the footsteps of harps played by world-famous musicians like John Lennon, Bruce Springsteen, Little Walter, and Paul Butterfield. The Hohner Marine Band is a number-one choice among top professionals and one of the most recognizable harmonicas all over the world. Known for its full tone, wood comb, and its patented cover plates, the Marine Band harmonica was there when harmonica blues was born. The Marine Band harp is a results of over 100 years of Hohner tradition and German craftsmanship.Choose your desired key!Hohner is a family company founded in 1857 in Trossingen, Germany by Matthias Hohner.

Hohner 1101 XB-40 Extreme Bending Harmonica, Key of Low Eb

Hohner 1101 XB-40 Extreme Bending Harmonica, Key of Low Eb Review



The new Hohner 1101 XB-40 Extreme Bending Harmonica was designed by Hohner USA's own Rick Epping and offers the harp player complete bending freedom with 10 holes and 40 reeds. Precision engineered and manufactured under the highest quality standards, the Hohner XB-40's revolutionary design permits a level of expression and note bending capability never before possible on any harmonica. On a regular 10-hole diatonic, or Marine Band type harmonica, the standard blues note bending technique involves an interaction between 2 reeds, one blow and one draw. On this style harmonica, only the higher pitched of the 2 notes from any given reed cell can be bent and then only to a point somewhat above that of the lower-pitched reed. The XB-40 overcomes this limitation by incorporating an additional set of reeds, tuned so that all twenty of the harmonica's notes can be bent using the standard blues harp bending technique. Using a system of patented valve chambers, the auxiliary reeds come into play only during note bending. The Hohner XB-40 is tuned so that every note can be bent a whole tone, with an additional semitone bend on the 3-draw to complete the chromatic scale in the first octave.
