Hohner 280/C 64 Reed Chromonica

I bought it as used from the amazon warehouse, arrived in a day and there was not any cosmetic or functional issuse. Item itself is a piece of art. no air leakage, soft effective slider and a very delightful sound. It has a quick response in the upper registers...

Deep rich sounding harmonica, as should be expected really as it's a Hohner? Liked the sound quality so much l went and ordered it's little brother which was delivered 24 hours later. Well done ? 👍

Excellent sound quality and value for money. Highly recommended.

It’s everything I could ask for. My previous chromatic harmonica didn’t come with instructions in its care, so some of the notes became “sticky”. In fairness, I did have it for over 25 years! This is on a whole new level in terms of how it accepts expression. My input needs to be more subtle on occasions as it is so responsive. Looking forward to it becoming instinctive. Amazon have suggested that I could mention value for money or comfort. Here goes… Was it worth it? A resounding yes! Is it comfortable? Well, it fits in my hands and is longer by an octave than my old Huang, but it’s manageable and I am getting comfortable with it. It’s a beautiful instrument. Oh, it is loud - so it’s a good idea to find somewhere to practice before inflicting it on your neighbours!

Super inspiring, relatively affordable yet perfect for the price range, you can’t go wrong.

Bb harp is not standard so pleased to find one for a decent price.

Absolutely awful product. Have tried 2 of them and both were faulty. Amazon were amazing and are refunding my money. They will be removing this product because of the number of complaints

Oh dear. I purchased this model along with one of a different brand that was almost half the price. Unfortunately the Hohner had two faults before even testing it, and so I returned it. Firstly, the corners are very sharp. To the point that I have no doubt they would have cut through the skin on my hands when playing. Secondly, the mechanism (button press), is extremely scratchy & noisy and so would be very distracting when playing. In addition, the case it's supplied in is no where close to being luxurious compared to the cheaper brand that I purchased. Once upon a time Hohner was deemed to be a top brand in harmonicas. Unfortunately I will not be purchasing this brand again. Don't assume that the more money you pay will get you a higher quality instrument in this case.
