The alluring design and full length covers of the Golden Melody are not all that this iconic harp has to offer. It’s the only Hohner Diatonic model that has Equal Temperament tuning, making it a favourite with jazz harpists who need to play in tune with other instruments in all positions. The beautiful pure tone sets it apart and makes it the ideal harmonica for single note solo playing. If you want to touch the hearts of your listeners and explore your potential as a soloist, our dream machine will set you on the right path.
The Hohner Golden Melody uses Equal Temperament tuning. Also known as 12 tone Equal Temperament or “12TET for Melodies”, Equal temperament allows you to play melodies that sound in tune no matter what key you play in. An Equal Temperament harmonica is essential for jazz, ballads, fiddle tunes and any musical style that focuses on single notes rather than chords.
Possibly the original pocket instrument, the harmonica has made its way into every style of music. An especially airtight harmonica with a wonderfully focused, full-bodied sound, the Hohner Golden Melody features a classy, retro 1950s look thanks to its rounded shape and closed-sided, full-length covers.
Let your melodies flow with the Hohner Golden Melody Harmonica.
