Swelling of the tongue after 4 weeks

Anton B., 19.12.2010

The harmonica CA SEYDEL SÖHNE BIG SIX FOLK bought 19.11.2010 has been blown for no apparent reason on channel 4 after only a few hours of careful use. The vocalist disliked several notes downwards and is no longer usable.
Conclusion: Violation of the tongue. Hmmm, I thought the stainless steel tuners would be a step forward, but my China-Harp from the discounter for 5 EUR has been doing it for years and here after only one month a total failure.

From the sound and the response really a great instrument, but the disappointed me now very much.

++++++++++++++++++++
ADDITION:
Thomann has immediately sent replacement, with this instrument so far no problems, however, I hold in the practice of overblowing / bending since something back ... The sound continues to inspire! Total points now corrected upwards.

What a sound, what a pleasure, what pleasure!

Olivier803, 28.03.2017

It is an atypical hamo, and at the same time a concentrate of pleasure.
The "Folk" model is tuned as a harmonica solist.
The natural notes of C gravity to Sol Medium are all there, without alterations, and the bends allow to easily obtain the Alterations. From where a comfort of games never reached in the bass.
After adjustments, I pass the overdraws on hole 6.

But the best is not there:
It is really a super expressive harmonica, with beautiful power and easy and beautiful bass (a "thick" and warm sound).
I had never played such a beautiful powerful bass on a harmonica, which was not to be foreseen its small size.

I do not get tired of it and I'll even customize it by putting valves on holes 1 and 2 to get 3 more serious notes (the Si, the Bb and the La below the C bass, which will extend a lot directory).

Here, I am seduced by this harmo whose even presentation in tin / resonator makes it already an instrument of exception.
