Connecting people across the world through musicIn 1857, Matthias Hohner, the son of a poor family of weavers founds his own company. Consumed by the vision of manufacturing the world‘s finest instruments, he soon builds the biggest harmonica factory in the world. His name becomes legendary during his lifetime. His products become synonymous with quality. 150 years later, the eye of the founder can look back upon instruments that have attained cult status, upon a success story that has influenced the development of music on every continent. Upon a company, that in spite of changing environments and globalization is ready to conquer the world of music anew. And upon a strong brand that focuses on the core values of its founder in every product area, producing quality instruments for hobby musicians and professionals all over the world.
“Bringing music acrossthe world is our mission.” Matthias Hohner 1890

With the Crossover we have expanded theMarine Band series to introduce a new,top-of-the-line professional quality instrumentfor the discerning player in modern blues, rock, jazz, soul or funk. The revolutionary laminated bamboo comb (patented) is completely sealed, making it water repellent and exceptionally stable. In combination with the screw together assembly the Crossover is extremely airtight, with fast, even response and a raspy, powerful sound which is exceptionally well suited to amplified playing as well as acoustic styles. The modern compromise tuning is ideal for single note playing in different positions in a wide range of contemporary styles, while still retaining a full chord sound, making the Crossover an optimal addition to the great Marine Band range.

The Thunderbird is the latest addition to the legendary HOHNER Marine Band range and features the innovative laminated bamboo comb (patented) used in the Marine Band Crossover.
It is tuned one octave deeper than standard harmonica tuning to produce the meanest, fattest low-pitched sound around!
The Thunderbird is also an homage to a modern day master of deep soul and innovation, Kim Wilson, whose work leading The Fabulous Thunderbirds redefined how blues, rock and soul can be melded together, and whose work with many blues masters, including Muddy Waters, puts him firmly in the pantheon of blues harmonica legends.
• » I love the playing feel of bamboo combs. Ever since I played the first prototype, the Crossover has been exactly what I feel a modern Marine Band ought to be. « Steve Baker

When Jacob HOHNER registered his new harmoni-ca design at the US Patent Office on January 30th, 1896, he can scarcely have forseen the impact it was to have on popular music.Conceived as a simple instrument for folk songs, the Marine Band went on to play a vital role in the
development not only of the blues, but also of modern folk, rock and pop music - a process which still continues today!
The Marine Band was what truly made the harmonica the people‘s instrument, played in every conceivable location from the back porch to the concert stages of the world, featured in countless hits and film soundtracks, immortalized in literature. This amazing little instrument has shaped the way most people perceive the harmonica today!

The HOHNER Classic SoundWhether it‘s young stars such as French harmonica sensation Rachelle Plas, rock artists like amazing James Garner or virtuoso jazz / blues pioneers such as Howard Levy or Carlos del Junco, they all have one thing in common:
The same reed design which makes the instruments of the Marine Band series the benchmark for blues stylists is used in the Golden Melody models, but in conjunction with the plastic comb and the full-length covers which characterize the Golden Melody, they produce a rounder, darker sound which is ideally suited to the more jazz-inflected tones preferred by many modern stylists. It‘s a question of tone!

decades, the instrument shaped whole styles of music and gave birth to a lively scene of chromonica players.

The word ”chromatic“ refers to a scale containing all of the 12 tones found in each octave, corresponding to both the white and the black notes on the piano keyboard. The chromatic harmonica contains all of these notes, thus enabling music to be played in all 12 keys on one instrument.
Actually the ”chrom“ consists of two diatonic harmonicas joined together, tuned a semitone apart, for example in C-major and C#-major. By pressing in the slide button, the player can switch from one to the other, raising the pitch of each note by one semitone.
The top of the line professional instruments are entirely hand built and represent the pinnacle of HOHNER craftmanship.The components are perfectly matched and each instrument is individually set up to ensure optimal airtightness and accuracy of tuning. Thicker reed plates ensure remarkably full, rich tone.C

CX-1
2 The CX-12 represents the greatest single innovation in commercial Chro-monica manufacture since HOHNER introduced the first chromatic harmoni-ca in 1912.
The concept was the brainchild of Gerhard Knoppek, a HOHNER R&D staff member who in 1991 was given the task of thinking up a radically newchromatic instrument.Knoppek‘s construction was brilliantlysimple - the comb and reed plate assembly is mounted in a one piece mouthpiece / housing unit and held in place by a powerful metal spring at theback. The slide can be removedinstantly, but is exceptionally airtight. Disassembly and reassembly of these components takes only seconds and requires no tools.
The CX-12 was presented on the Frank-furt Music Trade Fair in 1992 and wenton to win a major German industrial design prize. It is the preferred axe ofchromatic luminaries such as Bill Barrett from Hazmat Modine or LA studio crackTollak Ollestad and is regarded by many as the most airtight and user-friendlychromatic on the market.
• » The standard CX-12 as conceived in 1991. «
• » The new slimline mouthpiece and unique design makes this a chromatic for all styles. «
• » CX-12 goes Classic. «

Some product designs become timeless in form and function. Such is the Chromonica which celebrates its 100th anniversary this year!The Chromonica set the chromatic harmonica instrument standard and was adopted early by noted players such as Larry Adler, Tommy Reilly or Jerry Murad
and later by greats such as Willi Burger, Yasuo Watani and Franz Chmel. While considered to be a serious concert instrument, it has also found its niche in pop, jazz and blues over the years.The HOHNER Chromatic Harmonica, later renamed the Super Chromonicawas invented in 1912 and while Chromonicas and Super Chromonicashave been improved over the years, the core design remains in use on theM260/M270 line today.
• » Invented in 1938, revalued by a hundred details throughout the 20th century. «
• » State of the art since 1912. « • » Back to the roots - state of the art! «• » Built in millions since 1928. «

The robustly constructed and reasonably priced models of the Chrometta series are the perfect starting point for learning chromatic harmonica. Larger channel openings in combination with the projecting
mouthpiece ensure great response and make it easier forthe beginning player to hit single notes accurately.
The Chrometta was first released in 1956 and introduced the concept of a divided slide, integrated into the comb/mouthpiece unit, which is still used in this model today.This feature makes the harmonica very service-friendly and is resistant against moisture as well as gliding easily on the lips.

The tremolo harmonica‘s distinguishing feature is that it has two reeds per note, with one slightly sharp and the otherslightly flat. This provides a unique wavering or warbling sound created by the two reeds beingslightly out of tune with each other and the difference in their subsequent waveformsinteracting with each other. These so called 2-voice instrumentsare ideally suitable for traditional folk music.

OctaveOctave tuned harmonicas employ the same horizontal division of the channel openings as tremolo tuned instruments and are also mainly used in folk music. They all feature the curved ”banana“ form and use the Wiener Octave Tuning, where upper and
lower notes are tuned exactly one octave apart, resulting in a full, powerful sound without any tremolo beats.

Miniature harmonicas not only make great gift articles, their tonal range of one full diatonic octave also makes them
completely playable (even under conditions of weightlessness).The Little Lady‘s extraterrestrial première took place on December 16th 1965, when astronaut Walter Schirra smuggled one on board the Gemini 4 and surprised ground control with a spirited rendition of ”Jingle Bells“.With an overall length of only 1.38“ it is the smallest playable series manufactured harmonica in the world (or out of it).
