 "Constant reed problems" 2010-02-19
By N. J. Simicich (Labelle, FL United States)
Now, I love the idea of a chromatic harmonica. A typical harmonica has notes in the scale of the key it is in, arranged into chords. but there are no sharps or flats. The chromatic has the main 8 notes in 4 holes repeated over a couple of octaves, three if there are 12 holes. The button, when depressed, raises the note a half step by selecting alternate reeds. Thus I love being able to play complex melodies that I can't play on a regular harmonica.



As a point, you can't play "Greensleeves" on a regular harmonica. There is an accidental that can't be played unless you can bend, or fake it. Just one, in the whole song, and it does not sound right to me.



So I bought one of these at a local music store.



And I can play things like "If I were a rich man" from Fiddler on the Roof. But not always.



See, the reeds on this thing stick all the time. I called Hohner, they said, "send it to us. There is no user procedure that we can recommend under warranty for unsticking a reed."



There is no access for cleaning. So far I've managed to get reeds unstuck when they were stuck by doing something Hohner said never to do: when I asked them specifically: using water. I've used a syringe to spray distilled water into chambers where reeds were stuck, and gotten them unstuck, then shaking the water off. And then, a couple playing sessions later, they stick again.



And right now, the #4 reed is stuck, exhale, main bank (not the alternate bank), and I have to wash the harmonica again. The first bank tends to stick more than the others.



I want to buy a CX at some point, just because of the access, because they can be taken apart by the end user.



I could not recommend this harmonica because of the reed problems. I've had reeds stick immediately after a cleaning. The other person who reviewed one suggested that the harmonica should have been tested on a bellows before shipping, but it might well have stuck because it was bumped in shipping. Because of that, were you to try to play one professionally, I'd suggest a backup. And it seems that one instrument should be enough.

Unfortunately, I will be returning this. The #4 reed is non-functioning and never did produce a note. A test with harp bellows should have been done. This is the first time I got burned by a musical instrument from Amazon.

The reeds for the chromatic notes are brought into operation by pushing a slide button on the side of the harmonica, closing off the air flow from one set of reeds and permitting the other reeds to vibrate. Most chromatics are solo tuned, which means each group of four single holes covers a complete octave.This design offers a wealth of new musical options to the player.

 "Almost perfect!" 2008-12-06
By Elizabeth A Triano (In Transition, NY (watch this space))
This is a fun harp, especially for those of us who can't just make music spontaneously and need to play from a musical score. The range of notes and the sharp button make it possible to play almost any song that one might like.
