This Hohner Marine Band De Luxe brings the incomparable sound of the original blues harmonica into the 21st century. It incorporates design improvements aimed at optimizing handling, ensuring greater volume and faster response, to satisfy today's musicians.
The Marine Band Deluxe is more than just a state-of-the-art upgrade to Hohner's flagship diatonic harmonica. It is the rediscovery of deep emotions, the awakening of forgotten spirits, the rebirth of hidden energies. With Marine Band Deluxe bring the blues to life!
The Hohner Marine Band Deluxe is diatonic, with 10 inputs and a range of three octaves. The reeds are arranged in such a way as to allow the individual execution of each of the notes of the major diatonic scale.
Another characteristic of this harmonica is the standard Richter tuning, which allows the execution of melody and harmony, being possible to play the tonic and dominant chords in the lower part of the harmonica and the notes of the scale sequentially, alternating breath and aspiration.
Founded in 1857 in Germany, Hohner is one of the world's leading manufacturers of musical instruments, specializing in accordions, electromechanical keyboards and wind instruments such as harmonicas. Any Hohner instrument is synonymous with German quality and precision.
The Marine Band's unique and authentic sound defined the harmonica's role in the blues tradition and became the benchmark for all blues harmonicas that followed. It's a piece of music history, alive and sound, that you can hold in your hands, with modern refinements.
