Hohner TREMOLO M254001

This item is Made in China.Did not find it up to the mark as per other reviews for Hohner.Takes a bit of an extra effort to get the right notes. I have been using an old Hero harmonica earlier, and bought this one consider this as an upgrade. But was very disappointed. I found Hero sounds better and is much easier to play.

The case provided was open and a small piece & hinges was broken. The instrument was not in bad condition but it has fallen down atleast once, we can see a dent on the corner plastic part. Having small small scratches all over. Looks like a "used" piece. Need to see the quality of the notes etc yet.

I recieved harmonica with little scratches on its edges. Also casing itself damages harmonica as it is hard plastic and no soft cushioning inside at all. Branding of Hohner in front is printed which fades away very very easily, for me It didn't event last 2 days. As you can see in images it completely wares of and finally Its made in China product.Apart from that Sound quality is Great. Every 24 hole creates perfect sound, for high notes need to blow heavily. Lengthy and little heavy but manageable. As being a beginner this is my first harmonica which is tremolo harmonica. I consider it is great for a start, as spending high on non-Chinese chromatic harmonica, Its not worth in beginning. But yes chromatic harmonica will definitely give a wide range sounds.

Sorry, I could not find seller's contact address so writing on the review, one key of my harmonica is silent (not working) since I received that, could you please check the reason of fault, the product is just checked / not used.

1) You need to blow very hard for sound, which should not be the case with any Hohner mouth organ.2) The last and second last hole is not functioning properly. Wish to return this product if possible, thank you.
