This is a harmonica with octave tuning (the upper row of 24 holes is tuned one octave below the lower row of 24). When the two rows are played at the same time this creates an effect of 2 harmonicas simultaneously playing the same melody. This enables a single player to achieve a stronger, full-bodied sound not possible while playing a standard diatonic.

Echo harmonicas offer comfortable curved mouthpieces with traditional wood combs. The chromeplated covers have turned-in ends for extra style and sound. Key of C.
