Finally there is a harmonica with expanded pitch range, that plays as well as a ten-hole diatonic! This Solist Pro 12 combines the features of the Solist Pro with those of our Low and Superlow harps
* Holes 1-3 correspond to holes 1-3 of our Low- or Superlow harps
* Holes 4-12 are taken from holes 1-9 of the normal Solist Pro models
* convenient handling though there are two holes more
* brass reedplates optimized for loudness and extreme airtightness
* very good response
* wooden body, multiple coats of sealant for a resistant finish
The Solist Pro 12 is small enough to fit into the players hands to give him the feeling of holding a 10-hole diatonic like he is used to. This enables for full-cupped playing. The additional bass octave allows playing rhythms. There are manifold opportunities to play in octaves, too. Initially available in the key of Low C, high C, Low D and Low A (each with low octaves). This tuning is similar to Hohner's Steve Baker Special tuning.
