Recessed reed plates and a plastic comb built to handle Australian heat and humidity distinguish this diatonic harmonica from Hohner. The Special 20 has been a staple of blues and folk players for decades, and this limited edition throws support behind Breast Cancer Awareness Month with a pink ABS body. The construction places the brass reed plates below the surface of the comb, creating a more comfortable playing surface against the lips during extended sessions.
Twenty brass reeds are mounted on 0.9mm brass reed plates, delivering the bright, responsive tone the Special 20 is known for. The cover plates feature smaller back openings than standard harps, which concentrates airflow and emphasises the warm midrange character. ABS plastic throughout the comb and mouthpiece means the tuning stays stable regardless of temperature or moisture – no swelling, no cracking, no need to pre–soak before a gig. Tuned to the key of C, this model covers the most–requested harmonica key for jamming with guitarists and covering classic blues repertoire.
