Hohner Marine Band 1896 Classic
£32.99
32 Keys available
The Hohner Marine Band 1896 Classic harmonica is the original blues harmonica. Today it is still manufactured in much the same way as when it was first introduced in 1896. Its uniquely authentic sound has defined the role of the harmonica in the blues tradition and made it the benchmark by which all others are judged. Like the original Marine Band, the current 1896 model uses traditional long slot brass reeds, an open back and a pearwood comb to provide the warm and raspy tone beloved of blues, folk and country players throughout the world. Unlike older models, however, it doesn't use 7 Limit Just Intonation, but instead utilises a modern compromise tuning. This is closer to Just than many of Hohner's other harmonicas, such as the MS range, but still allows single note melodies to sound pure and sweet. The Marine Band Classic is one of the few Hohner diatonics that is available in a full range of natural and harmonic minor tunings. For low tunings, we recommend the Hohner Thunderbird, which has been designed from the ground up as a low tuned harmonica, but still has similar tone and feel to the classic Marine Band. Should you wish to replace reed plates on the Marine Band Classic, we recommend upgrading to the Andrew Zajac Marine Band Conversion Kit, which replaces the stock nails with a bolted setup, and makes the process of changing reed plates significantly easier. Original cover design from 1896 ensures the classic blues sound Greatly reduced swelling behaviour through double-coated pear wood comb Reeds: 20 Brass Reed Plates: 0.9mm brass Comb: Pearwood, brown Mouthpiece: pearwood lacquered Cover surface: Stainless steel Made in Germany Check the Key for additional tuning options: Natural Minor & Harmonic Minor ...

Ozzy Osbourne Golden Ticket Harmonica
£2,624.99
Ozzy Osbourne Golden Ticket Harmonica - signed and played by Ozzy himself!
We've managed to acquire one of the Golden Ticket Ozzy Osbourne harmonicas that has been signed and played by Ozzy. Limited to a production run of only 50 units worldwide, these harps are super collectable and were not available to buy from new (and, as far as we know, this is the only one currently for sale) - the only way to obtain one was to buy a standard Ozzy harp and hope that it contained the Golden Ticket.
Like the standard Ozzy harp, the Golden Ticket model is MS based, but comes with a transparent acrylic comb and white cover plates signed by Ozzy.
As well as being signed by Ozzy, all 50 Golden Ticket harmonica were also played by him.
This is an extremely rare and collectable harmonica - perfect for fans of Ozzy, and likely to appreciate over time.
