Seydel Chromatic Harmonica - 54480 Chromatic DE LUXE STEEL
|
|
|
|
The Seydel 54480 Chromatic DE LUXE STEEL is a 12-hole, 48-reed, Solo tuned, chromatic harmonica. Other keys and tunings are available by phone or email order. |
The Chromatic DE LUXE STEEL is the 'little sister' of our top model, the SAXONY Chromatic and is equipped with SEYDEL's unique Stainless Steel reeds. The half-moon shaped silver-plated mouthpiece is designed from the scratch and provides excellent sliding properties.
The Chromatic DE LUXE STEEL is characterized by a brilliant and full sound through all registers and a fantastic tone response, achieved by an extreme airtight and solid construction. The use of anti-corrosive materials for all parts is guaranteeing a long service life and high relieability. Besides in the standard key C/C# the Chromatic DE LUXE STEEL is available in many other useful keys.
