Hohner Chrometta 8 Hole Harmonica
AU$154.00
Hohner Chrometta 8 Hole Harmonica has:
- Stainless steel cover plates, black plastic comb (11.5 cm long), 8 holes/32 reeds, 1.05mm brass reeds, in a soft plastic case.
- Range: 2 Octaves. Key: C
- Chrometta 8 uses holes 1 - 8 and so has a two-octave range.
The robustly constructed and reasonably priced models of the Chrometta series are the perfect starting point for learning chromatic harmonica. Larger channel openings in combination with the projecting mouthpiece ensure great response and make it easier for the beginning player to hit single notes accurately.
The Chrometta was first released in 1956 and introduced the concept of a divided slide, integrated into the comb/mouthpiece unit, which is still used in this model today. This feature makes the harmonica very service-friendly and is resistant against moisture as well as gliding easily on the lips.
