Innovative Harmonica Design
My philosophy when it comes to choosing an instrument is: "if something works, don’t change it too much". (Antonio Serrano)
This signature model is essentially a Super Chromonica 270, with one small change that makes a big difference in terms of maintenance and fine tuning. The reed plates are assembled to the comb with screws instead of nails, allowing easy access to the reeds inside. This makes it much easier to clean, replace valves, or tune and change reeds, as well as making the instrument much more durable.
