## Overview

The Hohner The 64 Chromonica Chromatic Harmonica in C is a professional-grade instrument boasting a groundbreaking 4-octave range (C3–D7) and a resilient plastic comb for consistent performance in any climate. Its screw-assembled design allows easy maintenance and slide conversion for left-hand players. Since 1938, it has set the industry standard for chromatic harmonicas, inspiring musicians across blues, jazz, soul, and classical genres with its rich tonal versatility and iconic craftsmanship.

## Description

When it came on the market in 1938, the 64 Chromonica was the first chromatic to boast a range of over four octaves. Thanks to the additional bottom octave, it took the tonal range of the harmonica into registers where it had never before been heard, as well as brought many pieces from the classical repertoire within the reach of the instrument. It also enabled the eerie, deep-toned growl and full chords of amplified chromatic harp which swiftly became an integral part of the blues tradition, a sound which lives on to this day. It defined the industry standard for professional quality 4 octave chromatics and has gone on to inspire generations of players in blues, soul, jazz and classical music. Whether you play alone or in a band, if you’re looking for a real workhorse 64 chromatic it’s still your best bet.

Review: Why not learn on the best? - Or if not the best, at least a really good harp like the Chromatica 280 C. I'm a beginning harmonica player with 15 years of musical instruction and 30 years of playing piano, clarinet, and guitar under my belt. My musical bent turns mostly toward classical with a bit of gospel, so I searched for almost a year to find the "right" harp (as harmonicas are called). I decided not to waste money on a less expensive instrument because I figured from all I've read the 280 C can grow with me, or rather, the better I learn to play it, the better the music from it. Just like the other three I've learned to play. The advantages for me over the other instruments are that I can take it anywhere, play almost any sort of music on it, and play a wider range of music because of its 4-octave reach. Being in the key of C doesn't matter, either, because the slide will enable me to play in all the keys I can learn. Unlike the diatonic harps I won't need to buy other harmonicas to play in other keys. I figure this harmonica will be as good as I can play, and thanks to a couple of great harmonica books, it already sounds better than when I first picked it up a little over a month ago. The books are The Chromatic Harmonica Method by Max De Aloe, and Harmonic for Dummies by Winslow Yerxa. With this combo of books and instrument, the only limitations on where I can go musically are my own.
Review: Nice harmonica - This is a great harmonica. I showed it to someone in my harmonica group at the senior center. Who is a expert in harmonicas. He told me I got a great price. He was surprised for desertcart I didn't get junk. Many times was told you can't trust the sellers on desertcart.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: are hohner 280C and hohner super 64 chromatica same harmonica?**
A: No they are not. You have the Chromonica 280 sometimes called Chromonica 64 that's the Chromonica series. Then you have the Super 64C that is from the Super 64 series. Lots of times the name listed is not the one used by Hohner and marketplaces label it wrong. Checj our website for more info.

**Q: Is it easy to learn how to play it?**
A: Playing a chromatic in key of C is easy, since no slide action is required. Once yo get to other keys that have sharps, and flats in them, I would say it is hard, and may take years to learn.

**Q: I inherited a 64 chromonica 4 chromatic  octaves  c professional  M.Hohner. what is its value?**
A: Fifty to One fifty

**Q: does the hohner 280/64 harmonica have a warranty?**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice harmonica

This is a great harmonica. I showed it to someone in my harmonica group at the senior center. Who is a expert in harmonicas. He told me I got a great price. He was surprised for Amazon I didn't get junk. Many times was told you can't trust the sellers on Amazon.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sounded great but with defect
*by E***H on August 9, 2020*

The Hohner 64 Chromonica (16 holes) has the Hohner trademark sound. It sounds great, clear, bright and smooth. The look is classical. But the harmonica came with a broken case and hole dot 4, hole 1, 2 played no sound. I contacted Hohner via its Website. I was frustrated. I watched YouTube Hohner Service Workshop on making adjustment on the reeds to make it playable without success. Then, Hohner USA contacted me and asked me to send the harmonica to its reed service under warranty to repair. I just got it back yesterday. The sound problem is fixed but these holes are not responsive and the sound is terrible compared to the rest of the holes. I spent three hours making adjustment myself. It has gotten much better. I will continue to make small adjustment as little as possible each day (small adjustment is better than doing too much). The windsavers on some holes also have issues, too. Occasionally I will hear the buzz sound. Another problem as I just found out after played for 4 hours, my mouth and lips became swollen because the 64 Chromonica’s mouthpiece is brass with nickel plate. I am allergic to nickel. I love the sound comes out the harmonica. I can’t explain but it is different than the Suzuki SCX even though I also like the Suzuki SCX, I love the sound of Hohner 64 Chromonica better and looks of the harmonica. I ordered a Hohner Super 64X. The Super 64X has stainless steel mouthpiece coated with premium materials, no nickel no worries. Heard the sound volume comes out of the Super 64X is much bigger, richer due its double reed structure. Hope every hole works. Fingers crossed. Updates on Hohner Super 64X: The Super 64X came in excellent condition. Nothing was broken and fir the first time of my entire Hohner chromatic harmonicas purchase experience, this one, every single hole works and sounds awesome. The slider is very quiet and smooth. The sound comes out especially from the low octave is very good. The Super 64X came with a very nice zipper case and a Phillips screwdriver in the case, which is very nice and handy. The harmonica felt pretty substantial in weight (much heavier than most), I got used to pretty quickly without problem. The sound from the Super 64X is a little darker than the 64 Chromonica but I definitely noticed the quality is f the sound cons from the Super 64X is on another level than the 64 Chromonica. The Super 64X costs much more than the 64 Chromonica. The Super 64X is a professional performance model. If money is not a big issue, the Super 64X is a better choice.
