Harmonicas?
on: April 07, 2010, 01:09:06 AM
I had two harmonicas when I was a kid (wish I could find them now), one was plastic with a metal "shell", and I think another one I had was all metal.  I'd like to get another low end but decent one.

Just wondering if anyone has a few, or is a harmonicist :)

I have a Hohner 580 Meisterklasse made in Germany, in the key of C thats been sitting in a drawer for years, I might have used it once or twice many years ago. It has the original case and polishing cloth and is in mint condition. I play guitar but never got into the harmonica. If your interested in a trade let me know, can post a pic as well. looks like new ones go for about $100 on Samash.com and ebay, but I dont think it cost me that much years ago.

Thanks for the offer Blackbeard, but I'm thinking more in the $20-$30 range of Harmonica :D

Do you know if the one I have is worth $100? Cause I'll try to sell it on ebay, but when I got it many years ago, I doubt I paid more than $40-$50 about 15-20 years ago.

Is that Hohner gold colored, or is it just the pics making it look gold?

Just the pics, its silver/chrome. Think it was reflecting the polishing cloth.

I know this is a little old, but figured better then making it a new one, was just curious if anyone plays? I have one but just never got into it but really wish I did, music just wasn’t in my understanding,

Thanks, Steve. I got one for about €5 a few years ago. Can only (pretend to) play Taps and My Darling Clementine.
