How do the Seydel Symphony 16 hole chromatic harmonica and the 12 hole "48" orchestra tuned model compare? Which might you choose, and why.
Both have exquisite pedigree...cast aluminum covers with flare at back to project sound, stainless reeds, aluminum comb, redesigned and superior mouthpiece assembly with bottom up mouthpiece screws, top warranty (See Kettlewell's video series reviews on both harps) superb parts availability and manufacturing quality by #1 Seydel.
Both are customized, fitted with Kettlewell Frictionless Mouthpiece SLIDERS, and Kettlewell ERGO buttons. Slider provides friction free and saliva free movement to new note hole positions and relaxed embouchure, while ERGO button provides ergonomic feel to the button at all angles of attack.
The difference between standard C Solo tuning on a 16 holer and the orchestra tuned 12 is in the video. A couple of pieces of masking tape make it clear.
