Hi
When I first started playing harmonica (late 80s-early 90s) I tried Hohner Blues harps and hated them - they were leaky, stiff and just generally low quality harps. Since then I have avoided them like the plague.
However, recently I had the occaision to try one (they are now part of the MS series) - I needed a Bflat harp urgently for a session and that model was the only one in the shop - And I was pleasantly surprised. It blows easily, is fairly air-tight (for an out-of-the-box MS harp) and I can even get fairly good 4-5-6 overblows from it with minimal gapping! I thought this might be a fluke, but I have since bought 2 others (in G and D) and they are just as good. Is it just my imagination, or has Hohner improved this harmonica?
n any case, just thought I`d share this positive impression with y`all
regards
