A revolutionary concept for a unique, beautifully smooth sound: The Special 20 is the world's first diatonic harmonica with reedplates embedded in the comb. The result is a raised mouthpiece that promises unprecedented playing comfort and makes the Special 20 one of the most copied harmonica designs in the world. Its characteristic sound is perfect for everything from folk and country to rock and pop.
The Special 20 offers everything a professional harp player needs, but is also an ideal entry-level instrument thanks to its suppleness and fairly low price. If you are looking for a harp that is not only suitable for the beginner, but also remains a faithful companion in the future, the Special 20 is the right choice.
For better playability the reedplates of the Special 20 are embedded in the comb.
