## Description

Hohner Harmonica Marine Band 1896 Key C M189693X : desertcart.in: Musical Instruments

Review: Marine Band is IT - Well nothing wrong with the Marine Band Harmonica. Loud and great tone. But if you are a newbie my advice would be is to buy a special 20 because it has a plastic comb. Marine Band has a wooden comb (means good not bad), you can spoil it. After you master tough slapping and bending nothing puts you from using the Marine Band...The greatest of mouth organs for blues...Well some say the Marine Band Crossover but I am okay with that too
Review: A proud possession - Its really a fantastic instrument to possess by any harmonica lover. Extremely easy to play, the sound is clean and sharp. But (as per tradition) the edges are a bit sharp an the covers (again as per tradition) are nailed to the comb. Undoubtedly one of the most famous harmonica model.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A proud possession
*by C***N on 1 October 2020*

Its really a fantastic instrument to possess by any harmonica lover. Extremely easy to play, the sound is clean and sharp. But (as per tradition) the edges are a bit sharp an the covers (again as per tradition) are nailed to the comb. Undoubtedly one of the most famous harmonica model.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Sound
*by T***Y on 21 March 2019*

Haha... this is a beautiful sounding instrument. I laughed because I did not expect the sound to be neat. This is the right harmonica that beginners should invest in. You’ll love it. Helps you enjoy the process even more for the ease of blow and pull with that melodious sound. The price can be intimidating though
