Detail 01
Fine-cut reedplates with small reed tolerances
The close reed-to-plate fit is designed to reduce air loss and support rapid tone response.

Independent shopping perspective
Built as a Richter-diatonic harmonica in C, the Blues Classic 1847 combines stainless-steel reeds with closely fitted reedplates for a quick response, reduced air loss, and a full sound with pronounced overtones. Rounded cover edges, shaped hole openings, and rounded dividers keep the mouthpiece comfortable against lips and facial hair. Its sealed maple comb resists moisture and swelling, while the stainless-steel reed and rivet construction is intended for heavy-duty playing.
