Description
The Chord Blues Ten is a 10-hole, 20-note diatonic harmonica tuned to the key of G. It's built for blues playing, and it works best when you pick a key a perfect fourth above the instruments you're playing alongside. That's the standard approach for cross harp, and it gives you the bends and expression blues players rely on.
Inside you'll find precision phosphor bronze reeds, chosen for their accuracy and how long they hold up to regular play. The reeds sit across dual reed plates, and the whole thing is topped with pressed steel cover plates. The plates are removable, so you can take the harmonica apart to clean it or service the reeds when you need to, rather than having to replace the instrument. It's a practical build that suits players who want to keep an instrument in good order over time.
This harmonica measures 104 x 29 x 21mm and weighs 72g, so it slips into a pocket or gig bag without fuss. If you play in other keys, the Blues Ten range covers a variety of them, which makes it easy to build up a set as your playing develops. Whether you're starting out or adding a G harp to your kit, it gives you a straightforward, honest instrument to play.
