4 star harp June 13, 2007 Live to play harp (Moorhead, Mn. USA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The golden melody is a nice harp though I prefer the delta frost by bushman it has a better sound and only cost about five dollars more.
Nice harmonica, but i can't play it. May 25, 2007 Andrew Tane (Toronto, ON Canada) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a nicely built harmonica, easy to play and notes bend easily. However, because of the exposed brass strips above and below the holes along with the stainless steel metal covers, there is a strong bi-metal/galvanic effect. I have a silver filling in the back of one of my front teeth which hurts whenever I play this harmonica. My wife can play it without any problems and just looks at me weird when I describe the problem, but she's only got one or two silver fillings in her back molars. I don't recommend this harmonica to anyone who has silver fillings in the front teeth simply due to the galvanic effect. br / br /Otherwise, this harmonica has a beautiful sound, and is comfortable to hold and play.
Even better January 12, 2007 CPM (Vinton, VA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Still just a novice, but bought this more expensive model by looking at the reviews. br /WOW, what a nice sound, and still a great price. br /I find hitting single notes easier on my Hohner 81 Pocket Pal (still entry level skills), but if I want to sound better than I am, and I'm playing chords, I go for the Golden.
Great Christmas gift December 19, 2006 Kathy Barajas (Gila Bend, AZ) 5 out of 12 found this review helpful
I got this for my husband for a Christmas gift. It is so nice! It came in a hard plastic case and I cannot believe how fast it got here. I was expecting it not to arrive until after Christmas and I actually got it in three days! I'm extremely satisfied.
a harp you could set watch by March 17, 2006 Der Hammer des Kuchens 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
I really enjoy playing with this harp whenever I get a chance to because it produces a very good sound without having to blow or suck a lot of air in. I found it very easy to bend notes, in fact this is the first harp in which I was able to bend notes on. The roundedout edges are also very nice on the hands and it makes it easier to hold. It is made of plastic and not wood but that hasn't caused a problem so far. So I would reccomend a Hohner Golden Melody in any key to anyone. Although I would choose the one in the key of C, if you're a begginer because it would be easier to learn on I think.
