Hohner Tremelo Echo 48 Harmonica Key of C 12 Hole 48 Reed

Twelve holes and 48 reeds give this classic Hohner tremolo harmonica its distinctively rich, pulsating tone. The Echo 48 uses slightly detuned reed pairs to create the characteristic tremolo effect that's been a staple of folk, country and traditional music for generations. Housed in a double-lacquered maple comb with traditional cover embossing, this is the larger sibling of Hohner's single-sided tremolo models, delivering that old-school reverberating sound that defined an era of harmonica playing.

The wooden comb construction uses durable maple with a double lacquer finish, providing both tonal warmth and long-term stability. Brass reed plates measuring 0.9 mm thick produce clear, responsive tone across the full range. Tuned to the key of C, the 12-hole layout offers extended range compared to standard diatonic models. The slightly detuned reed pairing that creates the tremolo effect is factory-set to deliver that gently pulsating character without requiring any adjustment or technique modification from the player.
