Old Stand by These harps are constantly breaking on me but I keep on buying them because they sound great while they last. I guess I’m bending too hard and the reeds are blowing out. They are cheap enough for me to just keep on buying new ones each time they break. I think my reeds blowing out is probably just an operator error so I can’t knock too many stars off for that. I love the wooden comb on here. So much more better than a plastic comb on most harmonicas.I tried switching to a Lee Oskar…
Still the best! I’ve played blues harmonica since the 1960s â not professionally, but I have jammed with one or two greats, and a bunch of lesser-known but still talented musicians. I’ve owned Hohner Blues Harps, Special 20s and a Lee Oskar, and while I like all of them, I really love the Marine Band. I’ve owned them in A, B flat, C, D, E, F sharp and G (B flat has my favorite sound, but A is the one I use most for jamming, blowing cross-harp with guitars playing in E). Anyway, I can’t recommend the Marine…
