The Marine Band 1896 is the archetypal blues harmonica. Almost unchanged since it was patented in 1896, this iconic instrument embodies the real deep blues like no other and is the benchmark against which all others are judged. Initially designed for European folk music, it quickly became a prominent voice of American blues of the early 20th century, played by all harmonica players of this era. Itôs the soundtrack of broken hearts and dancing all night, of endless prairies and sweaty nightclubs. Like no other harmonica, the Marine Band 1896 is an invitation to express yourself in music, a key to unlock your creativity. When you discover this piece of living musical history, you wonôt just play the blues. Youôll feel the blues.

"The shop provides a large range of varieties. We spent very pleasant two hours in it and bought a Yamaha YSL-882OII that is out of stock everywhere in Singapore, a beautiful saxophone and other accessories that we needed. Great thanks to the shop owner who patiently allowed us to try so that we could take our time to make decisions. Highly recommended!"
