Hohner Special 20 Harmonica - C Major Special 20 Harmonica - C Major

The World's Most Copied Harmonica Design
A unique, beautifully mellow sound, based on a revolutionary concept: the Special 20 was the first diatonic harmonica in the world with reed plates recessed into the comb, creating a projecting plastic mouthpiece. This makes it more comfortable to play, and the most copied harmonica design worldwide. Its distinctive sound is perfect for everything from Folk and Country to Rock and Pop. The Special 20 offers everything a professional harpist needs, but it's also the ideal beginner's instrument thanks to its smooth playability and comparatively affordable price. If you're not just looking for a companion for the first few steps, but one to take you all the way, the Special 20 is your best possible bet.

Awesome response, superior bendability and the sweetest tone ever. This harp is the first choice for those learning to play. Its special airtight design makes it the most recommended go-to harp for harmonica players of any style, including blues, country, folk or rock. The plastic comb doesn't absorb moisture making it longer lasting. Harp of choice of harmonica virtuoso John Popper (of Blues Traveler) and played by Bob Dylan on his 2007/08 tour. Chances are your favourite player has several of these harps in their case.
