Key Features
Harmonicas have never looked this good! The Seydel 1847 Lightning Blues harmonica is the result of over 160 years of making premium harmonicas. Still to this day, Seydel Lightning harmonicas are hand-crafted in Germany to guarantee a premium harmonica experience.
What really makes the Seydel Lightning Blues harmonica stand out are the polished stainless steel reeds. By polishing the reeds, the Lightning harmonica is able to produce a beautifully balanced and fat tone - a dream for all harmonica lovers. Even the comb is made from polished stainless steel which adds a premium feel to the harmonica.
The attention to detail doesn't end there though. On the top of the Lightning harmonica, you'll find the gorgeous 3D-printed 1847 logo. Even the key stickers are oval-shaped to ensure you don't hold the Lightning the wrong way round, even in the dark. The Seydel Lightning Blues includes a premium case and microfibre cleaning cloth.

The Seydel 1847 Lightning Blues harmonica has been designed to meet all traditional requirements while also boasting innovative technology. This way you can play the harmonica with a scintillating tone as well as unparalleled longevity.
The 1847 Lightning harmonica is a result of Seydel's 160 years of experience hand-crafting premium harmonicas. During this time, they have managed to perfect every detail of the Lightning harmonica. One of their key discoveries is the use of stainless steel reeds. Not only do these reeds offer more stable tuning - even under extreme stress - but they're also resistant to any corrosion. These reeds are manufactured using fine-cut technology, optimised flatness, and are meticulously polished. What does this mean for you? The Lightning harmonica requires significantly less air while also producing a beautifully balanced tone with a fast response.
To ensure you're comfortable with the Seydel harmonica, the front of the Lightning boasts a lip-and-beard-friendly design. The harmonica is ergonomically shaped with slightly bulging, rounded canopy openings without incisions on the mouth side. The Lightning harmonica is even insensitive to moisture thanks to the completely corrosion-resistant design.
On closer inspection, you can clearly see the attention to detail on the Lightning harmonica. The first thing you'll notice is the gorgeous engraving on the top of the harmonica. 3D-printed to guarantee perfection, the engraving not only looks great, but provides more grip while playing.
On the inside of the Lightning harmonica you'll find a stainless steel comb. Just like the reeds, this comb has been polished and features the Seydel logo laser-engraved on the back. This comb boasts superb air-tightness and improved handling thanks to it weighing more than other materials. Even the key stickers are oval-shaped so you always play the right way round, even in the dark.
