Hohner Super Chromonica 270/48 (Key of C) – chromatic harmonica with slide (12 channels, 48 reeds, 3 octaves, pearwood comb)

The legendary chromatic harmonica – almost unchanged for generations

With the Hohner Super Chromonica 270/48 you hold one of the best-selling chromatic harmonicas in music history. It is still built almost exactly as it was when it was invented, and it delights classical players as much as jazz, pop, folk and blues musicians. If you are looking for an instrument that plays in every key and lasts a lifetime, you have come to the right place.

Fully chromatic thanks to the slide

The side slide button opens a second set of reed plates at the press of a finger and raises every note by a semitone. This lets you play all twelve semitones across three octaves – the prerequisite for demanding melodies, jazz lines and classical pieces that a diatonic blues harp simply cannot reach.

Quality materials for a full, projecting tone

The pearwood comb delivers the warm, characterful core tone the Chromonica is famous for. The 48 brass reeds on 1.05 mm reed plates respond precisely, and the windsaver valves ensure an efficient, controlled sound. The nickel-plated brass mouthpiece glides smoothly across the lips, while the stainless steel covers add brilliance to the tone.

Your benefits at a glance:

• Fully chromatic: all twelve semitones across three octaves – every key playable.
• Warm wooden tone: pearwood comb for the typical Chromonica sound.
• Precise response: 48 brass reeds with windsaver valves.
• Durable build: nickel-plated mouthpiece and stainless steel covers.
• Versatile: proven in classical, jazz, pop, folk and blues.
