Loud and great tone. But if you are a newbie my advice would be is to buy a special 20 because it has a plastic comb. Marine Band has a wooden comb (means good not bad), you can spoil it. After you master tough slapping and bending nothing puts you from using the Marine Band...The greatest of mouth organs for blues...Well some say the Marine Band Crossover but I am okay with that too ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A proud possession *by on Reviewed in India 1 October 2020* Its really a fantastic instrument to possess by any harmonica lover. Extremely easy to play, the sound is clean and sharp. But (as per tradition) the edges are a bit sharp an the covers (again as per tradition) are nailed to the comb. Undoubtedly one of the most famous harmonica model. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Sound *by on Reviewed in India 21 March 2019* Haha... this is a beautiful sounding instrument. I laughed because I did not expect the sound to be neat.This is the right harmonica that beginners should invest in. You’ll love it. Helps you enjoy the process even more for the ease of blow and pull with that melodious sound.The price can be intimidating though ## Frequently Bought Together - Hohner 1896BX Marine Band Tuned to Key of C Harmonica with 0.9mm Brass Reedplates, Single Laquered Pearwood Comb, and Arched Stainless Steel Covers - Harmonica Primer Book for Beginners with Video and Audio Access - Hohner Marine Band 1896 Diatonic Harmonica --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/80084560-harmonica-marine-band-1896-key-c-m189693x](https://www.desertcart.be/products/80084560-harmonica-marine-band-1896-key-c-m189693x) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-11*
