Seydel Shamrock Star 6

Do you know this situation? You are hiking or celebrating with your friends. Someone starts singing a well-known song in a comfortable round - what is missing is an instrument for accompaniment: an accordion is too big and a guitar maybe too bulky ...

The SHAMROCK STAR 6 is a versatile pocket-sized instrument for accompaniment that can create a very good mood instantaneously - we guarantee that its accordion-like sound is very convincing!

Technical and musical features:

Six SHAMROCK Octave Harmonicas form the SHAMROCK STAR 6. These are tuned in Richter tuning, giving each instrument the tonic blow chord (root or I-chord) and the dominant-7 chord if you draw (V chord).

These chords let the player accompany simple (traditional) songs. However, the important subdominant chord (IV-chord) is not available. In contrast, the SHAMROCK STAR 6 provides the full cadence:

The solid star-shaped bracket made of polished stainless steel holds six SHAMROCK octave harmonicas. Their arrangement follows the principle of the Circle Of Fifth. The two turned stainless steel handles in the pivot axes let the player swap instruments very conveniently: the star is simply turned horizontally in front of the mouth.

The order of keys in the approved standard configuration is Bb, F, C, HG, D and A 

The most commonly used cadence (I, IV & V) becomes playable with the IV chord included! With that logical arrangement of the instruments in the SHAMROCK STAR 6, it is very convenient to find the right chord very easily and fast. The full cadence can be played in the most commonly used keys: Bb-, F-, C-, D-, G- and A major.

Many of the chords available on the SHAMROCK STAR 6 can be played both as a blow chord and a draw chord. This helps a lot to not run out of air while playing even long pieces! The instruments come in a practical bag made of black cloth.

The SHAMROCK STAR 6 is a full-fledged accompanying instrument compact in size that can keep up very well with an accordion or an acoustic guitar:

The Circle Of Fifth displays the subdominant chord (IV) counterclockwise from the Tonic chord (I). Clockwise, you will find the dominant chord (V)!

Example for a piece in the key of C:

F-Major <-- C-Major --> G-Major

Universal:

Subdominant chord (IV) <-- Tonic chord (I) --> Dominant chord (V)

Please note: You can freely configure the SHAMROCK STAR 6 in other key combinations - free of surcharge (all semi-notes ranging from A to HG are possible). Please contact our customer service team if you would like to configure the harmonica with keys other than the default options.
