The Original Chromatic Revolution
With its sleek good looks and the elegant simplicity of its construction, 
the CX12 Black turned a lot of heads when it was introduced in 1992. 
It won the German Industry Design Award shortly afterwards, which was 
definitely a first for a harmonica instrument in modern times. 
Its powerful, distinctive sound and fast, easy response make it 
ideal for the ambitious amateur or contemporary professional player 
looking for a modern, easy to service chromatic harmonica in styles 
such as rock, pop and jazz.

HOHNER Super 64 X Performance

The black beauty
When the original Super 64X hit the market it astonished chromatic enthusiasts 
with its beautiful black and gold design and its volume boost thanks to the 
double thickness reed plates on the first two octaves. With the new Super 64X HOHNER 
has managed to top expectations once again. Its double thickness reed plates now extend 
over the entire range of the instrument, offering a massive boost in volume in all octaves 
and the high-end coating gives it a uniquely attractive appearance. The VarioSpring System 
permits individual adjustment of slide spring tension, while the revolutionary construction 
of the new SilentSlide is exceptionally airtight and almost completely silent in operation. 
In addition, the optimized comb chambers ensure fastest possible response. 
Just like the new Super 64, the Super 64X sets new standards in durability and ease of maintenance. 
The reed plates are mounted with screws, without contact to the covers, reducing reed wear and making 
basic maintenance much simpler. The covers are attached separately and the nylon case provided also 
serves as a mobile work bench. The new Super 64X – a black beauty with a bite!
