 Start Out with This HarpFeb 11, 2011
By Kathryn Johnson
I give this harmonica five out of five stars in terms of its quality-to-cost ratio. I paid about six dollars for the thing in a drug store, buying it just on a lark, but I was immediately impressed with its ease of play and its tonal quality. Sure, it's not in the same category as the Marine Band or the Lee Oskar, but then again, it's about $25 cheaper. Personally, I find that it's quite easy to bend notes on it, although I see some think otherwise. It's comfortable on the lip, too (some people, especially beginning players, find the ridges on either side of the comb of the Marine Band and Hohner Blues Harp uncomfortable. I can't really comment on its durability since I haven't played it that much, but I will say that the Blues Band is NOT a toy (unlike other brands in the same price range). I've even gigged with it and it's sounded great. Anyway, nobody shouted out "Hey, that's just a six-buck harmonica! What the hell?!"
I'd certainly recommend that a beginner start out with something like this. It's the best low-end instrument I've ever played, and I've played a bunch.

 Decent for BeginnersSep 06, 2008
By R. Gutierrez

Not a bad harp for a beginner. I recently bought it (my first harmonica) and within a week blew out two reeds. Has good sound, just make sure not to continually blow or draw really hard on one hole.

 good for 5 dollarsSep 27, 2008
By deano
plays good at first. easy to bend up to the 6 hole. 7-10 holes are hard to play consitantly.

eh...Jan 25, 2009
By Loganb
worked well for one day. now day two, the 2 draw and 10 blow reeds dont work... also not very well crafted lots of air gaps the air is escaping and not even touching reeds. although hohner is a great brand save money and buy higher line of hohner.

CheapMar 22, 2009
By Michael J. Rockholz
I added this to one of my purchases so that I could get free Super Saver shipping. I own a few harmonicas. All of them are made by Honer in Germany. This one is made in China. I bought it for about $3 and gave it to my four year old son. He loves it.
