Hohner Marine Band 125th Anniversary C-major

January 30th, 2021 marks the 125th anniversary of the most iconic and influential
harmonica model of all time – the HOHNER Marine Band. Since 1896, it has stood for
craftsmanship, quality and the spirit of HOHNER around the world, helping create the

Sonny Terry and is still synonymous with blues harmonica today.
