For a beginner this is an excellent harp

This harp is pretty much the standard recommendation for beginners but as a beginner I prefer a couple of the other Hohner models

You can buy better, but if you aren't a hard core harp player, this is an excellent bang for your buck

The Special 20 is easy to disassemble and make adjustments to, and is a durable little harp

I had heard on a number of websites and Youtube.com videos, that the Honer Special 20 was a good harp, but once I played it,

If you are looking for a good beginner harp that has awesome sound then dont skimp out and get the Special 20 as I seem to be able to hit single notes better and bends are much easier with this baby.

Great harp

In my opinion Lee Oskar is a better quality harp.

this is a better Harp at a better price

This is a great sounding harp

I love this harmonica right next to my ms series pro harp!

A friend of mine claims the special 20 to be his favorite harp, but recently experienced the same problem

This harp is a favorite of many favorite musicians including John Popper of Blues Traveler

I think that good harp like this is what a beginner needs.

Grea harp, very responsive, no break in time

I love this harp

Not sure if it the best "blues" harp.

i love this harp, first time i only bought a $10 harmonica.from an unknown brand and the harmonica need more power to get the sound, kinda hard to slide or trail, then i start to realize that i have to get a better harmonica,...and after doing research on the web and books, this harmonica its always come to place in the list of the recommended harmonica

Great harp.

The sound is great easy to play along with any of your favorite Harp players one of the best and inexpensive Harps ever !!!!

I am far from perfecting the techniques but this harp is pretty easy to bend notes on

I love the A harp a real nice sound

Great harp to start out with

the easiest harp to bend notes on followed by the Crossover and the Manji at 9.5.You'll eventually buy several harps to try them out, but this one is a keeper

Good harp.

Is the right harp for everyone!

JP Allen recommends the Hohner Special 20, the Hohner Crossover, and the Suzuki Manji as his top 3 harps

Good reliable harp

I had no idea I was buying a high-quality harmonica that I would continue to play even once I moved on to more expensive harps

Honestly, I've paid for more expensive harps, and I still prefer the Hohner Special 20 when it comes to blues

I have been blowing harp for over 35 years.

This harp is a rather good one for the price, the sound is crisp and clear, it does well with bending and is extremely full in sound, It is easy to clean and manage

My first harp was a marine band and while it is still my favorite, i really like the plastic comb.

I suppose buyers (and sellers) should be aware of the difference since the packaging has the Marine Band as a higher-tier model, and that's what I was expecting, but both are great harps, and I'm having a blast with mine, so I won't be exchanging it.

Hohner makes a well-put-together instrument and I will enjoy this harp for some time

There is just one thing, it says that this harp is best for beginners, but I personally think that if you are a beginner you should get yourself an A harp, I have C harp, and it works well for me, but it's easier to learn playing on an A harp

Very nice harp but not as easy to bend as the Golden Melody.

I thought I'd try a little cheaper harp so far so good

On the plus side, it is quite easy to find replacement reed plates for Lee Oskar harps (cheapest price I

On the plus side, it is quite easy to find replacement reed plates for Lee Oskar harps (cheapest price I

And I agree wholeheartedly with what someone else has said: if a person's first experience at playing is with a better quality harp, such as the Spc

This is a fun little harp for playing the blues.

but you know, something cheap before i make the plunge into a more expensive harp

so if you like a thinner harp just be aware.

It's a good harp at an affordable price and is a favorite of many

For a beginner this is an excellent harp

Great quality harp that won't break the bank

The harp is just amazing - It plays well right out of the box

This one is recommended by many people as the "best 10 hole harp for beginners", but I'm disappointed.

Just starting to learn but so far seems to be a very good harp.

Great sounding harp.

Great harp, even with the model line renamed "Progressive

One of the best harps I've ever had the pleasure of playing and owning

Overall fantastic harp if you atre a beginner but also will last you a while.

I thought I'd try a little cheaper harp so far so good

For anyone not yet having a Special 20, I heartily recommend it - beginner, intermediate or advanced students, or the performer on stage - this harp is simply great

Nice little harp for a beginner like myself.

Great Harp for beginners

This is a great harp that is easy to play in any style.

Now only does this seem like a very durable and easily cleaned mouth harp, it also sounds good.

I fell in love with this harp as soon as I blew my first note, the sound is incredibly clean, clear, sweet, and soulful, I have owned Hohner harps since I was 7 years old and my Grandmother gave me my fist harp for my birthday

Very nice harp plan on ordering more soon

It is a wonderful harp, with perfect tuning, easy bend-ability, does not buzz or squeak, and

I'm not a pro YET, but this harp is definitely best for the money

the only thing worth noting is learn how to properly clean your harp, my notes were muddy and unclear while i was practicing

Nice harp for reasonable price.

Great sounding harp

A great harp that makes note bending easy

Great Harp at a great price

My favorite harp type

I would recommend the Golden Melody, the Blues Harp, and even the new Blue Midnight.

I would really recommend this harp for beginners, intermediate and advanced players

If you play a lot of straight harp like I do, the middle key note will eventually go flat so it might be a good idea to practice with a cheaper harp.

This is a great harp for the price.

great harp

Special 20 harps are great for beginners like me

A fine harp

Nice harp, but pretty expensive for a disposable instrument.

Anyhoo, now that I've met the word requirements, I'll just say that this harp is probably the best you can find in this price range

Great comfortable harp.

The Special 20's are great harps

Love this harp, affordable, warm bright sound, decent bite, rounded corners on comb corners are easier on the lips

Excellent little harp!

No really, Hohner makes great harps, I have a box full!

A classic harp

Overall great harp!

LOVE this harp!

Hohner is incredible and makes the best harps for players who want to wail.

Also the Pro Harp is consistent.

But I don't think you'll find a better harp for the money anywhere.

Didn't notice how bad the other harps actually sound until I got this one

Great harp

I was able to bend notes right away with this one, while other cheaper harps take a long time (or never) to break in properly

It takes a little time to break it in so you can bend notes, but it's a great starter harp that goes easy on your wallet.

This is a very nice harp, clean, bright sounding when you want it to be, plays fast and is responsive, and is sensitive to less air, similar to a Lee Oskar, as far as air needed for playing, or like a Golden melody

Good harp

TBT, my first decent harp

Great sounding harp

nice harp

One heck of a great harp.

I am fairly new (one year) to the Harmonica and would say this is a great harp for beginners and maybe for all levels of players.

They sound like what blues harp sounds like in my head

I'm a loyal Hohner harp player

There are better harps out there, there are cheaper harps out there.

special 20 is a great harp but expensive, arrived on time and excellent condition

This Special-20 is the most popular harp in the world

Hohner Special 20 is the right harp for everyone who's into playing the blues.

Great harp for a good price, and it shipped very quickly.

Grea harp, very responsive, no break in time

Beginner harmonica player, awesome harp

I really love the sound of the special twenty easy to play and clean enexspenceve great harp for begginers

Great basic harp for beginners and experts alike

an amazing little harp, very responsive, a lot of fun to play

If this is your first Harmonica, I couldn't recommend this one more as it is sturdy, sounds wonderful and the reeds bend very easily.

" It did take a little while to break in the special 20 before it played as easy and sweet as it's step brother- the American Ace

Key of C first, then an A, D, G...enjoy!

I am completely confused as to why they leave the edges of the plastic comb sharp.
