SAXONY CHROMATIC Key: C, Covers: Matt chrome
The Origin of Sound - the SAXONY CHROMATIC - the first serial-produced chromatic harmonica with stainless steel reeds! The SAXONY CHROMATIC ORCHESTRA is a professional chromatic harmonica with unique playing features. The SAXONY CHROMATIC ORCHESTRA starts with the G3 below the C4 like on many 14-hole chromatics - the upper two notes of the Standard C therefore are omitted. The instrument benefits from the stainless steel reeds well known from the 1847 Blues harmonicas and the timeless precision manufacturing of the Renaissance chromatic harmonica.
* Full, loud sound and fast tone response due to the stainless steel reeds: durable and stable in pitch even with heavy duty playing
* Reliable valving - new windsaver material
* Less air-loss due to optimized reed plates made of German Silver - optimized flatness and extremely small tolerances between reeds and reed plate slots
* New mouthpiece with round openings
* Improved slider package design – optimized for air-tightness and comfortable action
* New cover plate surface, matt-chromed – comfortable on the lips and glides easily during playing
* Cover plates opened wide at the back and crimped to allow the overtone-rich sound to spread out unhindered
* High precision manufactured aluminium comb – optimized for ideal tone-response, with design coating in metallic look
All components were rethought and improved – the result is the SAXONY CHROMATIC – a master’s instrument that fits professional demands. This harmonica opens a new dimension of SEYDEL's long tradition of making quality harmonicas. Precision made in Klingenthal, SAXONY, Germany. new
