I can’t say enough great things about this harp. The build quality is outstanding. I bought the C and LD specifically for playing Irish jigs and reels, and right out of the box, no gapping adjustments were needed. In my opinion, this harp holds its own against Hohner’s Special 20 and Rocket—if not surpassing them.
The only potential drawback for some might be the Equal Temperament tuning, but overall, I give it two thumbs up! 👍👍

Very Easy-to-Blow with a Warm Tone
I bought four DaBell Story harmonicas in melodic tuning a little over a month ago. They feel very comfortable in the hand, like Lee Oskar harmonicas. The tone seems the tiniest bit brighter and ever-so-slightly easier to blow than Lee Oskars (but very similar). They're just a delight to play and feel very natural. Compared to the other harps in my case, they blow much easier than Special 20s and Session Steels. My Rockets are a little more open, but the Rockets have a darker tone. The DaBell Story has a warmer, gentler timber. It's easy on the ears, like a parlor instrument. Super responsive. But it'll also project if you move the air through it. Very nice harps! Good price. Five stars!

Good Deal from a GREAT DEALER!
I like these harps now that the Special 20's are way more expensive. I have been shopping with Rockin Ron's for years and now I will not buy harmonicas anywhere else.

A Story With A Happy Ending
The build quality and tone of these harps is outstanding! I started with an A harp and rapidly procured a complete set in the common keys. These are airtight and very easy to play. They are an absolute bargain, and Ron’s service is impeccable.
