Harley Benton Blues Harmonica in F-Major

Original review: Great build, sound and well packaged. I'm no expert with this instrument but I'm delighted

Edit: I am editing this review as after just a few uses of the harmonica, it feels like it has seized up at around 5 to 8. There is hardly a sound from it. I have other keys of the same harmonica (D and G) and they are fine, just the F is problematic. I have seen another similar review regarding the F.

When it was working it sounded lovely and the D and G versions do still.

I bought this out of curiosity just to see how it would sound. I was pleasantly surprised by its general performance, especially for an instrument that cost less than the price of a beer. For a beginner or someone who just wants a 'try out' instrument it is perfect. The sound is good and it is responsive enough to allow a beginner to learn basic technique.

Value for money instrument with decent sound. Ideal for a player who wants to have a wide variety of scales in his hands price-wise.
