A Hohner Reference in the Lineage of the Modern Chromatic
Hohner made history in wind instruments by popularizing the chromatic harmonica at the beginning of the 20th century, paving the way for full-scale playing (whole and half steps) thanks to the slide. The Super 64 C continues this tradition of excellence: a model designed to meet the expectations of musicians seeking tuning precision, construction stability, and ergonomics tailored for both stage and studio.
For Which Musician and Styles?
The Hohner Super 64 C clearly targets advanced and professional musicians: those who need an expressive, reliable, and consistent chromatic harmonica across the entire range. Tuned in C, it naturally adapts to jazz, variety, film music, pop, and classical contexts, where clean modulations, fast runs, and solid intonation are required, including in very chromatic passages.
Sound and Design
With its 1.05-millimeter brass reeds, the Super 64 C delivers a balanced sound: strong projection, clear attack, and stable response, appreciated for precise articulation in jazz phrasing or sustained melodic lines. Its transparent polycarbonate body provides a modern feel and good consistency, while the CNC-milled mouthpiece offers very comfortable contact and helps secure tone production, especially during fast transitions and subtle dynamics. The whole design supports consistent playing across the entire range, with ergonomics suited for long performances.
Diatonic or Chromatic
A diatonic harmonica is centered on one key (often a major scale) and excels in blues, folk, or country thanks to its direct character and expressive techniques. A chromatic harmonica allows access to all notes (including half steps) via the slide, making it particularly versatile for jazz, classical, and modulating repertoires. The Hohner Super 64 C is a chromatic harmonica: designed for unrestricted playing of accidentals over a wide range of four octaves.
