Surprisingly nice harmonica!!
Anonymous 07.02.2015
I have been using Hohner Marine Band harmonicas since the 80s, but have been open to trying different makes over the last few years. I have bought Suzuki Promasters, Lee Oskar and different ranges of Hohner before trying the Harley Benton brand. I thought it was worth a punt at under £3, especially as the reviews are mainly positive.

My personal preference has been for Marine Band harmonicas, maybe because of the years spent playing them but also they have a bit more of the gritty sound I am looking for. The Suzukis are perfectly built but sound far too smooth, Golden Melody and Lee Oksars are very nice harps, their sound being a bit more refined than the Marine Band but more character than the Suzuki.

I would put the Harley Benton Harmonicas on a par with the Lee Oskars, or at least not far below. They sound good, notes bend easily, single notes are clear. They are well made, and feel nice to play. I will probably still record with Marine Band but for live gigs, these are much more than adequate. I will be back for the whole set, it's really a no brainer considering the cost of these vs Hohners or Lee Oskars.

Harley Benton does it again!

A True Steal at this Price
Anonymous 12.05.2016
I only wanted to have a G-Major harmonica lying around, and I did not have much to spend on it. I expected it to be a bad-made cheap harmonica, but at such a low price, it is truly a steal, it really is worth more than just four euros. I would not stay it has a fantastically unbelievable and unique sound and tone, but frankly for only four euros, I do not think you would be able to get anything better than this.

Big bang for small bucks

I got this for my nephew so that we could jam together. It's not as good as the Hohner special 20 but for the price it is excellent. My nephew's parents are glad I got him a harp in a low key as it's a bit gentler on their ears!

Great For Alternative Scales, Kids, Beginners
Anonymous 18.02.2016
Solid sound, not as Air Tight as 20Euro harps but can play songs without getting dizzy if you do not bend too much. I got myself D and G to try Irish tunes with some Youtube videos and it does the job nicely - I will probably tune them in Paddy Richter and will definitely buy more scales when I have the time to experiment with more tunings like country and reggae. Very nice product to have multiple scales of! Cheers :)

never mind the price, feel the quality!

Many cheap blues harps are just that, cheap & no more than a toy. not in this case! the instruments are loud, free blowing, fine for gigs & recording, & are highly recommended for players seeking a lee oskar-esque feel at a fraction of the price. you will be surprised at how these harps compete. Highly recommended!!

Amazing value
TobiasFEsq 09.01.2023
I have three of these. For the price they are unbeatable and frankly I can't imagine you could tell the difference in sound from one of these to a much more expensive harmonica. (I have tried and failed). They are quite tough too and have survived drops and rough treatment in the hands of children and are still in tune.

Perfect for the price
mm00024 07.01.2018
Pros:
Low price, nice construction
Cons:
Low volume sound you need to blow or draw harder to make it sound higher like the most expensive models
