[Harp-L] CX-12 Jazz / Harponline

[Steve Baker <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The CX-12 Jazz cover offered as a spare part by Harponline for EUR  
85 / approx. $115 is only available in the metallic gold color at  
present and is fully compatible with the old CX-12. I'll ask Hohner  
in Germany when they'll be available in black, as that may well be  
cheaper and will also follow up the question of the US price  
mentioned in previus posts.

Harponline is an indepent online retail store located in Germany  
which offers a vast range of harmonica-related products, unparalled  
service, has an extremely informative bilingual website and is also  
the only distributor of Hohner replacement reeds (yes, reeds, not  
just reed plates) in Europe. Owner Michael Timler is one of the most  
dedicated individuals in the harmonica community and his company  
sells worldwide to an increasing number of customers who are happy to  
feel their interests are understood. Mr Timler also offers a number  
of "semi-custom" modifications to standard models such as acrylic  
glass combs or offset adjustments to facilitate overblows and has  
pioneered a method of reed replacement with Austrian classical  
chromatic virtuoso Franz Chmel which is described in detail on the  
website. I have no commercial connection to harponline but can  
recommend the company without reservation,
