The Seydel Favorite B (H) is a fantastic choice for blues harp players looking for a reliable and well-voicing instrument. The aluminum comb offers a crisp response, and those stainless steel covers really soften the edges without sacrificing projection – it’s a great step up from entry-level harmonicas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Aluminum combs are generally more durable than plastic, resisting warping and cracking, but the tone is brighter and more responsive, lacking some of the warmth of plastic.
The 'H' denotes a higher-pitched reed configuration, which can be slightly more challenging for absolute beginners, but offers a more traditional blues tonality.
It offers a very competitive price point for the quality of materials and construction, especially compared to harmonicas from Hohner or Suzuki in this tier, delivering a very clean and well-defined sound.
