C HARMONICA 2416/40

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Golden Melody Tremolo Harmonica 15-61460 Hohner 2416/40/C This model of tremolo harmonica for folk songs and golden oldies, comes with a non-swelling red plastic comb, and Gold anodised aluminium cover plates. The Tremolo harmonica’s distinguishing feature is that it has two rows of reeds for each note, with one tuned slightly sharp and the other slightly flat. This provides a unique wavering or warbling sound created by the two reeds being slightly out of tune with each other, and the difference in their subsequent waveforms interacting with each other. These so called 2-voice instruments are ideally suitable for traditional folk music. The Golden Melody Tremolo harmonica has 20 notes (10 blow and 10 draw), which run in a double row of reeds for a great tremolo sound. Unlike a chromatic or 10-hole diatonic harmonica, the blow and draw reeds are in separate reed chambers to each other. The ends of the instrument are curved for playing comfort.
