Hohner Harmonica Microphone - Harp Blaster HB52

The new standard in harp microphones
Modeled after the sound of legendary vintage harp microphones and with the help of professional players, HOHNER and sE Electronics have created the Harp Blaster HB52, a dynamic harmonica microphone.
Boutique features such as the Bourns® potentiometer and the gold plated XLR connector and state of the art manufacturing make it the new standard in harmonica microphones.
- Dynamic capsule - designed after legendary vintage microphones
- High quality gold plated XLR connector
- High end Bourns® potentiometer
- Robust construction - rock solid all metal housing
Instead of looking at competing products to sculpt the Harp Blaster's sound, we took our inspiration from a select group of professional players. The goal was to create an exceptional mic ideally suited to their needs, engineered to uncompromising standards, combining fantastic sound quality with optimal ease of use and maximum durability. After all, if a microphone can become a seamless extension of the artist's emotive output - rather than a distraction or an obstacle - the music can flow unhindered and achieve maximum sonority and expresssion. Together, HOHNER and sE chased down this ideal, creating a state-of-the-art product that will satisfy the most discerning harmonica player.
The Harp Blaster HB52 is a serious modern microphone using highest quality components. Handcrafted completely out of metal, it boasts a specially designed dynamic element for the authentic vintage sound, a thick die cast body with zinc-alloy parts and chrome detailing. not only will it withstand the uniquely brutal conditions a harp mic can face on a nightly basis, it will do so while enabling vastly superior tone in comparison to other harmonica microphones.
