Did you know that the harmonica has been around for centuries, yet it's one of the most underappreciated instruments out there? It's true. While ...
Harmonica manufacturer Seydel ranks among the world's best. Their harmonicas are very famous for their high quality of manufacture in Germany.
Seydel is historically the oldest harmonica manufacturer in the world. Founded by two brothers Johann Christian Seydel and Christian August Seydel in 1847. The brand history is more complicated than Hohner though as it struggled through times to establish itself as a major brand. Something that the New Seydel team has been arduously working on in the past 30 years. Seydel harmonicas have a great reputation and are built in Germany. Nowadays Seydel is endorsed by top professional players like Charlie Musselwhite.
Innovations that makes Seydel harps popular today are the fact that most models are available in a wide variety of keys including low and super-low keys (like the Low Low E) and the use of german stainless steel for most of their reeds.
Seydel also offers many options for chromatic harmonicas, diatonic harmonicas but also tremolo harmonicas and accessories like their new harmonica holder the Gecko.
