Hohner Special 20 Country Tuning Harmonica in the Key of Db

Recessed reed plates sit flush inside the comb to create a projecting plastic mouthpiece – a design so successful it became the most imitated harmonica construction worldwide. The Hohner Special 20 Country Tuning Harmonica in Db pioneered this approach, delivering the smooth playability and comfort that made it a fixture in Folk, Country, Rock and Pop sessions. The country tuning offers altered note positions compared to standard Richter tuning, opening up melodic possibilities that suit traditional and contemporary styles alike. It's equally at home in the hands of first-time players and professional harpists, thanks to responsive action and a price point that doesn't demand a mortgage.

The plastic comb resists climate shifts and humidity changes that warp wood, maintaining consistent performance across Australia's varied conditions. Cover plates feature a reduced back opening that emphasises the warm, mellow tone this model is known for. TORX screws hold the assembly together with stability that simplifies maintenance and reassembly when cleaning or adjusting gaps. The harmonica ships in a modern snap–close plastic case that protects the instrument between sessions without adding bulk to a gig bag.
