Kaine C Key Chromatic Harmonica 12 Hole 48 Tone Harmonicas Chrome

Came exactly as shown in the picture

Great for the price. Early days yet but it still plays well. When it gets too moist in some holes from playing and humidity, I can't get a note out of that particular hole. An hour later it's fine again. Good for playing at home but not really for long sessions in a group. Definitely recommend for a first chromatic harmonica for adults or children.

Well, the slide works like it should, and all the notes play. But they don't play well. Half the blow notes, from note #7 (as marked on the instrument) up, are extremely weak; actually inaudible unless I blow a serious blast of air past them. And if I do that, I still don't hear much of a note, as it's drowned out by the windy noise of most of the air leaking out. And that's the main fault of this harmonica, making it damn near unplayable. It leaks like a sieve. I won't say it's the worst-leaking harmonica I've ever tried to play; most of the really inexpensive diatonic harmonicas are just awful. But I've never bought a harmonica in this price range which leaks as badly as this one. This came with a major dent in the bottom cover, at the low (i.e., left) end. The box wasn't crushed, so shipping probably isn't the culprit; it looks like it was packaged up pre-dented. But the dent probably isn't why the instrument plays so abysmally, as the lower-pitched reeds actually work, albeit not very well. The harmonica still leaks badly there, but the notes are at least audible. This harmonica has no case; just the cardboard box shown in the photo. If you want to try an inexpensive chromatic harmonica, I'd recommend the Swan 1040, a 10 hole chromatic which is very playable and quite good. (The Swan diatonics are as bad as anyone else's, and the Swan 16 hole chromatic is awful, but the 10 hole I bought is nice). It's more expensive than this one, but not outrageously more.

Its cheaply made.leaks bad . Barely playable. I've had amazing experiences with Easttop harmonics. So I thought to give another Chinese company a chance. Don't waste your money. On this. I bought it just to experience the difference to a diatonic.....I prefer my diatonic... hands down to this It's pretty but not playable. Reeds leak. Cover plates are thin. Very light no heft. Straight up crap!!!

It is a shallow sound harmonica and it does not perform like we'd expected. The chromatic is only in its name, but not in performance. However, the price was low, so there are no miracles. My 4 year old is playing it now and he loves it. The harmonica serves its purpose and gets some use (and abuse that it can handle). So, we gave it 3 stars for the price and its durability.

Item is fine

This instrument is great for beginners. I have been playing it for about a year now and aside from a few kinks here and there it has been perfectly fine. Not amazing but functional and for the price of ~$20 it's a pretty good deal.

Extremely disappointed. Sent it back. 1. Received a USED item (Openbox; Scratches; Cleaner residual). 2. Several high notes and other notes have major AIR LEAKING, you have to blow it hard to hear a sound. 3. Very good price for a chromatic, but NOT worth it. 4. AVOID any vendors sending out used items unless they list them as that.
