	Special 20 try out
joe m. on 12/18/2020	I normally play the Hohner Blues Harp or Marine Band harmonicas but had heard a lot of players like the Special 20 so thought I'd give it a try out. It's a Hohner so that's a plus and it plays well. Meaning, it you're new to harmonica the special 20 won't require a lot of practiced technique to get a pretty good sound right out of the gate. I did find it has a little less volume and fullness that the 1896 but all said it is good harp. Back in the day we used to dunk our harps in water to get a more raw, coarse sound but it can take a toll on a pear wood harp but I'm told with the all synthetic comb on the 20 that's not as big an issue.

	Good product
Nathan F. on 12/15/2020	Excellent harmonica!

	Hohner Special 20 C
Melissa K. on 10/30/2020	I love my new harmonica, I had a Special 20 D & have been wanting a C. The Special 20 is way to play right out of the box and nice & loud. I'm enjoying playing it, as my other harps are rather old & a few notes out of time. Plays great.

	So easy

Juan G. on 03/18/2020	The hohner special 20 being my 1st harmonica I can't compare it to others. I can say from the week I've owned it... it's a great harmonica. The special 20's recommended to beginners by professionals and I see now why, nice sound and comfortable to play.

	HOHNER SPECIAL 20
Brian H. on 02/29/2020	Easy to blow

	Hohner Special 20 is good
Rick K. on 02/28/2020	From the moment I blew on it from a few inches away to warm it up the first time, I've been impressed with the sound. It's easy to make those reeds sing. I'm a beginner, so I can't adequately compare it to any other models. I can say this one does not have a cheap feel to it. I like the sound too.

Terry H. on 02/13/2020	I had a great experience dealing with Harmonica Land. Great price and I got the harp with in 2 days. I for sure will order again when I need another harp.

david c. on 01/06/2020	I was given a Hohner auto-valve-harp for Christmas from my grandfather when I was very young ( I am 77+now). the price on the box is 6.25. But it is a Bb and I always wanted a C. Now trying to get my great grandchildren into playing. Needed a C that blew easy.

Edwin C. on 10/14/2019	i have not bought a special 20 in maybe 25 years now. They seem to have notes now that you have to blow on at the right angle or you get not much or no sound I though the reeds where blow on a couple notes

	not what they use to be
Edwin C. on 10/14/2019	have to blow just right on them to get sound right

	some of the reed seem tinny
Edwin C. on 10/14/2019	have to watch how you blow notes on these now

Dennis J. on 09/26/2019	Happy with my special 20.

	Sticking Reeds
Darrel B. on 09/11/2019	I am a beginner. I spent some time on a cheap harmonica that came with a "learn to play book". Felt like I was getting the hang of it and upgraded to the Special 20. It seems that the reeds on holes 7,8, and 9 stick at times. The sound is either weak or sometimes nothing at all. When it happens it frustrates me because I don't know for sure if it's me or the harmonica. When this isn't happening though I love it. If you have any suggestions I would appreciate the help.

Mikey S. on 09/15/2016	Pretty straight forward harmonica, good entry level for a Hohner sound but not their best. I like the Special 20 for amplified Chicago blues playing

	Classic Hohner Sound
Henry J. on 03/15/2016	I like the Special 20 to play blues rock tunes with my band not so much for acoustic though. Thank you for the Fast shipping !
