The Hohner Comet C 40-Tone Harmonica is an octave harmonica in the key of ‘C’ featuring elegant, 1950’s design and versatile sound options.
The Comet series features an eye-catching streamlined design with gold anodised aluminium covers and a red solid plastic comb. The projecting channel dividers are rounded for added playing comfort and offer the player fascinating possibilities of varying the sound.
Octave tuned harmonicas employ the same horizontal division of the channel openings as tremolo tuned instruments and are also mainly used in folk music. They all feature the curved ‘banana’ form and use the Wiener Octave Tuning, where upper and lower notes are tuned exactly one octave apart, resulting in a full, powerful sound without any tremolo beats.
