A budget harp
Anonymous 21.03.2014
For its price, it's a decent harp. The sounds are actually nice (for this price I expected much worse).
Compared to more expensive ones (that cost 3+ times more than this one), there are downsides. The airflow is not separated in each chamber, so bending and general responsiveness is not that great. Although unlike other cheap harps, the sound is consistent between individual notes and does not require different power to sound in the same volume.

The case, although included, does not hold the harp firmly, so it bounces inside. Both the case and harp feels like a budget model.

Decent harp for its ridiculously low price, although for serious bending capabilities, higher price harps should be considered.

Below what I hoped for
gitar-gaj 06.08.2023
I get that they're cheap, but they're not what I hoped, you have to use way too much air to get a sound out of them and the bending is not very natural, there are Chinese made harmonicas, they're called Easttop, and they used to go around 10-12 Euros, but they're way better then the HB ones. I bought 5 of the HB, but I think I'll go a different way for future purchases, even thought I still use them.

Quiet blues
Arthur6472 15.11.2014
This has a broad tone, but without the projection that I am used to.

I do however look forward to using it for recording in real time performance as my regular blues harps are too shrill and aggressive next to the vocal microphone. The quietness and breadth of tone may serve me better there, than attempting to mute performance harps that are over loud for that purpose.

Cheaper than a packet of fags and a lot healthier.
John571 07.11.2013
It seems that from other reviews this harmonica is a bit hit and miss. Fortunately I appear to have got a hit. Of course it's not up the standard of more expensive professional harps but look at what you are paying! Its in tune and sounds ok.

It's robust and playable and for the occasional use its great. However, If you're looking for a harp that will be played day in and day out then perhaps you best look elsewhere.

Good enough for the price
João_Silva 28.10.2022
It's cheap and cheap sounding, but as an harmonica for someone who's learning its enough.
