Thanks for the review. Sounds like a cool harmonica.

Thank you for playing both the Suzuki SCX 64 and the Hohner 280C because I was stuck between the two and needed to hear their sound. I own a Hohner Special 20 and am a fan of its brighter tones. Most of the music I want to play is pop and something experimental :), so I'm glad to hear how the Suzuki compares. I think I might get it as my first Chromatic.

As a diatonic player for several decades, I've been wanting to learn chromatic for a long time, but put if off because it seems like starting all over again. I think I'll make the leap and pick up the SCX 64. Thanks for a very useful introduction to this model. Incidentally, I did buy a complete set of Suzuki diatonics a few years back. They had great tone but weren't very durable in my opinion. It looks like their chromatic is more heavily constructed. Thanks again.

Whoa, why so many dislikes?

Yea, I'm a little confused about that too.

Just bought one of these as an upgrade to my Seydel Chromatic deluxe. Love it, it's a much nicer instrument!

thanks for the video. Im a beginner to harmonica's. ive just purchased the scx-64. but find the notes arnt there to play certain tunes :(

@bluesthang 8 лет назад

Just bought a Chromatix scx-64. Was wondering if it is normal for the lower notes to tend to buzz and rattle once the not has been played. No rattle or buzz while the note is being played. Seems to be on the release of the notes. Only happens on the lower octave. Is just the way I attack the lower notes? Technique probleme? Would this happen also on a Hohner 64?

Hi David... Thanks for the video. Are the phosphorus (I think that's it) reeds of the Suzuki more resilient and longer lasting than brass reeds, for example in the Hohner 280?

@davidkettlewell829 8 лет назад

I think so

@danmaodi3940 2 года назад

Hi David, I assume Suzuki SCX64 is comparable Hohner 280C given both have 16 holes, am I right? Do you have any comment compare SCX64 with 280C, in terms of responsiveness,sound effect? Thanks!

@vikasupadhyay1398 6 лет назад

Hi David ..could you please suggest that which key chromatic harmonica produces lower pitch almost in the saxophone range ..because I prefer a lower pitch ..I have been trying to find an answer .. will the key of g like Suzuki g 48 suit the tone I am looking for?

@TylerEaves 3 года назад

Low range on a 16 hole in C is lower than a 12 hole in G.

@vikasupadhyay1398 3 года назад

@@TylerEaves thankyou

@winnipegism 9 лет назад

Is it normal for the 12 hole to be very hard to play? I just got a brand new SCX 64 and can't produce much sound out of the highest note. Is there a break in period perhaps?

@davidkettlewell829 9 лет назад

Ian Michaluk Hi Ian...no, an SCX 64 is not known for being hard to play, but the high notes and the low notes on chromatic harmonica are known to be a bit challenging to play...so you're having a typical experience. Make as direct an air channel as you can, on the low notes...keeping your tongue low and opening the back of your throat to make a clear strong air channel, on high notes focus the air with tongue a bit higher towards the roof of your mouth, and always drive the air from your diaphram. Keep at it, you'll get that high note to sound. See videos and articles on MASTERSOFHARMONICA.COM for more free help.

vorrei sapere cosa costa sirius 12 fori

@dcrichmondshire8316 6 лет назад

This is a lovely instrument. In my opinion beats the Hohner and any other!

@hnatyshyn 3 года назад

You didn't play the low register!?!

@billjarv 4 года назад

At 3:16 you said "two notes, separated by an octave"......Are you sure?......usually pushing the button simply plays the sharp. Not jump an entire octave, where on the device is C4 next to C5 my ears are pretty good and those two notes aren't an entire octave apart...In fact I have just held a chromatic tuner to the speaker and it goes from C4 to Db4 (otherwise known as C#). You might be great at the harp but poor at theory

@billjarv 4 года назад

@Joshua Immanuel erm....NO he didn't....he did not 'Play an Octave'...he played a note.

@billjarv 4 года назад

@Joshua Immanuel I think you need to re-read your music theory....an Octave is eight notes....with flats and sharps it becomes 12 tones....I DO know what an octave is....Also, owning quite a few Chromatics and Diatonics...I THINK I know what a slide does...duh

@billjarv 4 года назад

@Joshua Immanuel Hold you chromatic tuner to your computer....one in your phone will suffice.....they are ONE TONE apart...NOT one octave!

@tdeecy 8 лет назад

Ok nice axe, but no comparison between it and the Hohner you played, I'm surprised that you thought the rather one-dimensional sound of the SCX was better than the great Hohner multiplex, almost trademark harmonica sound. Perhaps you just don't hear it. That said, I have and play an SCX. Ane THAT said, I like my Hohners better for their sound. And the 2-piece, 3-piece MP assembly debate is easily solved by a little intelligent maintenence.

We all prefer different instruments, and it's good to see your post, and view. I do enjoy my Hohner CX 12 Jazz immensely, especially on a mic.
