Hohner Meisterklasse MS C

This is definitely better than a standard Marine Band, Blues Harp or Special 20. Good response and features, but bending notes not as smooth as I would have expected. Requires more effort than I would have hoped and as a result sound a bit 'breathy'
I'm also testing the CA Seydel 1847 as I'm upgrading all my harps.
I have to say that for me, the CASS 1847 is better than the Hohner.

In terms of build quality, this harmonica is second to none. In terms of sound, it has a pleasant, precise and bright tone. It is a very nice Harmonica, as opposed to a harp you can get down and dirty with the blues. But it is not made for that. Of course, it depends on what you need. If you want a well-made, professional standard harmonica then you cannot really go wrong with this one. I do not use it all that often because I play the blues.

I have been using Hohner harps for few years now and tried majority of models produced by them. Meisterklasse is without any doubt the best you can go for - by far. It sounds absolutely amazing - both acoustic and through mic. Also, very importantly, Meisterklasse harps last for very long time which make them excellent value for money.
