I am a beginner, and as such, I like to try different harmonicas to see how they "fit", whether I can easily get a key, and get it right, and how easy I can try my luck on playing more than scales.
I like this Fender Chromatic Harmonica - the handling is easy, it feels and does look high-quality, and the tones are nice to the ears. Even when played by a beginner like me - that gives confidence!
What might be a downside - chromatic is definitely more tricky than your usual Blues Harp! I am still trying to figure out how to play this big guy, but I like the easy-to-play attitude of this harp.
All in all, if you're not afraid of holding quite a big piece of a harmonica, I can definitely suggest this Fender - it comes at an attractive price, way less than a Chromatic from e.g. Hohner, but you don't miss our on easy handling, great sound or volume. If nothing else, then it's a good starting point to try this family of harmonicas!
I would buy it again.
