Back to the roots - state of the art.

For more than 100 years, the Marine Band has been the favorite harmonica of artists like Little Walter, Paul Butterfield and Kim Wilson. Ever since 1896, discerning professional harmonica players in search of an unmistakable and unique sound have played the Hohner Marine Band as their instrument of choice.

The Marine Band Deluxe is a contemporary addition to the Marine Band legacy. Combining the features of the legendary harmonica with a variety of state-of-the-art improvements, the Marine Band Deluxe produces greater volume and faster response while retaining the richness and power of the harmonica's classic sound.

The key features and benefits of the Marine Band Deluxe include:

  • The classic Marine Band sound
  • Improved cover design for greater volume and enhanced stability
  • Assembled with 3 reed plate screws and 4 cover screws to maximize air tightness and facilitate maintenance (which makes it service friendly)
  • Sealed pear wood comb
  • Rounded channel openings and outer corners for greater playing comfort.
  • The tuning is rooted somewhere between A=443 and A=445, using a light temperament, with 5 and 9 draw tuned sharper than the MB Classic
  • MB Deluxe has cover plate screws not nails, Deluxe has open back and heavier gauge screws holding down the reed plate. Also, Deluxe has triple lacquered front comb like a Crossover. The screws and heavy laquer alone make it worth the upgrade.
  • Includes a zip up pouch.

Product was fine. Service was great!

The harp is a great harp out of the box. It was a little bit "airy" on the 2 draw compared to the Crossover that it is replacing (has gone out of tune over time). But, with a tiny adjustment, it plays exactly as well as the crossover. And prior to the adjustment it still played great -- I'm just picky. For the price, one of the best off-the-shelf harps you can buy.
All that being said, customer service was excellent and Rockin' Ron's is a great place to purchase from. Will definitely do so in the future.

Love the comfort and playability of the Marine Band Deluxe. Rockin’ Ron’s is keeping the blues alive by stocking these instruments in all keys!
