Kongsheng Lyra High Quality 12 Hole Chromatic Harmonica Includes Free USA Shipping

I have been a satisfied Rockin Rons customer for several years, with all of my purchases arriving in good working order; however, this one is the exception.
In my professional practice as a licensed therapeutic musician, I use high quality harmonicas (diatonic & chromatic) when playing for my patients.
Upon putting this instrument through it's paces, checking the tuning and sound quality on all blow & draw notes, slide in
& out, the following defects were noted:
Hole 4 blow and 9 blow (C notes) had a noticeable, annoying flutter. when I tested the 5 blow and 9 blow (identical C notes), they sounded fine. In addition, the air flow on the 12 hole blow & draw was severely restricted.
I seldom give negative reviews, but felt compelled to be blatantly honest with this one.
Thank you,

This harp plays well right out of the box. I didn't have to make any adjustments. I am sure the sound will improve as it goes through the break-in period. I love this orchestra tune since it basically gives me the same range as a "C" trumpet does.(similar to Seydel Saxony "Orchestra C") IMHO, this one surpasses the brand name harps in build quality, esthetics and sound. So, I ordered one more immediately. Look no further. Highly recommended. Also, the service at Rockin Rons Music is phenomenal!!!

Loud. easy playing. Good price for a metal comb. A little heavy but hey it's got a metal comb!

Always responds quickly to a product order or questions concerning a product. Very informative on the extensive list of products concerning the world of harmonica.

Amazing harmonica. Sounds and plays great.
