Hohner Orchestra Bass 58 Harmonica, E Overview
The Hohner Orchestra Bass 58 Harmonica is a harp for depth of sound to underpin your harmonica ensemble. In each channel there are two reeds, tuned one octave apart, giving you a rich, full sound to provide a powerful bass layer. Even in such a low register, the Orchestra Bass Harmonica has an incredible response and volume. This is down to the harp's unparalleled airtightness as the mouthpiece is integrated into the comb construction.
Enhance your bass harmonica playing. The transparent comb not only looks great, but the acrylic material is also resistant to changes in climate conditions, meaning it will give a reliable performance. Hohner has carefully considered the balance in sound by positioning the lower tuned reeds in the middle to accentuate the bass for a consistent, deep layer of sound.

The sound of the Hohner Orchestra Bass 58 Harmonica is unparalleled. Its hinged two part construction allows room for more bass notes, which resonate beautifully thanks to the structure. The lower of each pair of octave-tuned reeds is positioned on the inner rows of the instrument, so the sound that is projected is well-balanced and the bass notes cut through.
Play in style. The transparent acrylic comb on the Orchestra Bass 58 gives the harmonica a modern look which is complemented by the stainless steel cover plates for a sleek overall design. You can look after your harmonica easily, as it's completely assembled with screws for ease of maintenance.
