Hohner Marine Band Deluxe

For more than 100 years, the Marine Band has been the favourite harmonica of artists like Little Walter, Paul Butterfield, Mickey Raphael, and Kim Wilson. Ever since 1896, discerning professional harmonica players in search of an unmistakable and unique sound have played the Hohner Marine Band as their instrument of choice.

The new Marine Band Deluxe combines the features of the legendary harmonica with a variety of state-of-the-art improvements that can be described best as a modified version of the Marine Band Classic. In comparison, the Marine Band Deluxe optimises all the great characteristics of the original classic Marine Band in a customer oriented harmonica. Hohner have developed state-of-the-art improvements which include optimised handling to ensure greater volume and faster response while retaining the richness and power of the Hohner Classic Sound.

The key features and benefits of the Marine Band Deluxe include the following:

The classic Marine Band sound
Improved cover design for greater volume and enhanced stability
Assembled with 3 reed plate screws and 4 cover screws to maximize air tightness and facilitate maintenance (which makes it service friendly)
Sealed pear wood comb
Rounded channel openings and outer corners for greater playing comfort.

This is a hand made precision instrument, assembled, tested and tuned by hand and by qualified and trained engineers.
