Being the big fan of Dub reggae I am, I decided to buy this melodica so I could blow along to my favourite tunes, it did not dissapoint!
Very clear and sharp sound, dynamic expression, and easy to use... The only downside I think is that you need to blow harder into the mouthpiece in order to get a loud note the more notes you hold in, and then if you release several notes down to one again it becomes obnoxiously loud. I believe this is because of the mechanics of a melodica itself and not only specific to the Hohner.
