So as this is my very first Harmonica that I bought and do not play that long this is the conclusion to the Seydel.
Holes 123 are for a beginner more difficult to play and to draw on, however compared to the Hohner Special 20 it is much more demanding to play these notes.
I do not doubt Seydel workmanship the quality of these harps is prograde without question, but this harp is considerabyl more difficult to play the 123 holes on drawing.The sound is excellent. Some might say ahh you are a beginner and you have no experience. I also bought the Hohner Special 20 after reading reviews and watching a few videos.....long story short, the Hohner plays MUCH easier and to bend on the Hohner is much easier.
Mostly I will play the Seydel G and C on the Harmonica holder and play the Hohner in my hands. The Seydel feels better in your hands because of the smooth curves compared to the Hohner. Just because the Hohner Special 20 is easier to play doesnt mean it sounds better.Seydel is of course way ahead in sound quality.
