Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The Hohner Orchestra Bass 78 is a powerhouse. This is a top-tier instrument built for serious bass harmonica players—think orchestral work, jazz ensembles, or anyone needing that huge, resonant low-end. The construction and tone are superb, but be prepared for the heft and a more limited range compared to some other bass harmonicas.
