Thanks to legends like Bob Dylan, the Hohner Marine Band Classic is an essential part of pop music history.

A real Hohner harmonica

Enthusiasts will surely agree that a real Hohner instrument stands head and shoulders above the competition. As far as design, sound, and feel are concerned, an authentic Hohner fits ergonomically in your hand for a great playing experience. Nothing beats the renowned Hohner quality, which isn't surprising if you consider they have over 150 years of experience making harmonicas! Some of the production process is done by hand because Hohner believes that good harmonicas simply can't be made by machines alone. Their instruments are therefore still inspected manually for their sound and optical quality, and are tuned by hand as well.
