The Big Chromatic
When it came on the market in 1938, the 64 Chromonica was the first 
chromatic to boast a range of over four octaves. Thanks to the 
additional bottom octave, it took the tonal range of the harmonica 
into registers where it had never before been heard, as well as 
brought many pieces from the classical repertoire within the reach of 
the instrument. It also enabled the eerie, deep-toned growl and full 
chords of amplified chromatic harp which swiftly became an integral 
part of the blues tradition,a sound which lives on to this day. 
It defined the industry standard for professional quality 4 octave 
chromatics and has gone on to inspire generations of players in blues, 
soul, jazz and classical music. Whether you play alone or in a band, 
if you’re looking for a real workhorse 64 chromatic it’s still 
your best bet.

The Penta Harp simplifies the harmonica by giving players easy access to one of the most 
useful scales in rock and blues music without the need for advanced techniques. 
The tonal layout is the Blues Scale, which
is a Minor Pentatonic scale with the added "blue note". It allows to create expressive melodies 
and solos quickly and easily, and to never play a wrong note!

Features:
Based on the well-established Special 20 harmonica, the perfect beginner’s
instrument thanks to its ABS comb and recessed reed plates
The tonal layout is the minor pentatonic scale with the added "blue note", so no
bending is needed to play the blues scale
Large tonal range: three complete blues scales on one 10-hole diatonic harmonica
No change in the blow-draw cycle is needed when playing scales (unlike for
Richter harmonicas between holes 6 and 7), which makes intuitive playing even easier
