## Overview

The Hohner 560BX-BFLAT Special 20 is a professional-grade diatonic harmonica featuring recessed reed plates for smooth airflow, a durable plastic comb designed for heavy use, and a polished finish for comfort. Tuned in B flat, it delivers a versatile, mellow sound ideal for genres from blues to pop. Renowned for its ergonomic design and long-lasting craftsmanship, it’s the go-to choice for beginners and pros alike, backed by decades of trusted performance.

## Description

A unique, beautifully mellow sound, based on a revolutionary concept: the Special 20 was the first diatonic harmonica in the world with reed plates recessed into the comb, creating a projecting plastic mouthpiece. This makes it more comfortable to play, and the most copied harmonica design worldwide. Its distinctive sound is perfect for everything from Folk and Country to Rock and Pop. The Special 20 offers everything a professional harpist needs, but it’s also the ideal beginner’s instrument thanks to its smooth playability and comparatively affordable price. If you’re not just looking for a companion for the first few steps, but one to take you all the way, the Special 20 is your best possible bet.

Review: A wonderful harp - I am forever meeting people who rave about this harp, but had not tried one for myself until today. It is a wonderful harp, with perfect tuning, easy bend-ability, does not buzz or squeak, and belies it's reasonable sale price. I went for the Key of Bb, and love the tone, the playability and the just right feel of the instrument. For anyone not yet having a Special 20, I heartily recommend it - beginner, intermediate or advanced students, or the performer on stage - this harp is simply great. I am not often surprised by anything but this harp surprised me - it is not expensive at all, and sounds as good as others I have that are four times the price. I am a Hohner Marine Band Special Twenty convert - I will get a couple more to add to my ever growing box of harps.
Review: A Professional Harmonicist's Favorite - If you cannot tell the difference between the two harmonicas in my video; buy the Hohner. I don't really go over the mechanics of why the harp is quiet and sucking air; but, face it you really don't care about that, you just want to know if this cherry price on a special 20 is legit... it is If you're short on money; or, the kind of beginner that likes to learn with a handicap so you can be better on the pro equipment, buy a 10 dollar harmonica (AKA "Harp"), practice a whole bunch and then buy the Hohner and you will find out that you are a lot better than you were on the cheap harp. I am a professional musician and the Hohner 'Special 20" is my favorite of all of Hohner's Harmonicas for playing blues and Jazz I keep a "Bb Major Diatonic" with me at all times. It has a thinner vertical profile than the "Hohner Blues Harp" or the "Lee Oscar" and therefore goes deeper into my mouth for better bending ability and tone. I sounds better to me than the standard "Marine Band" or "Golden Melody." I cannot stand playing harps with painted surfaces like the "Pro Harp" because they stick to my lips and make my riffs drag. The Special 20 is chrome the way a good harmonica should be, in my opinion. Some people prefer a wood comb but these babies have gotten really expensive in the last 20 years and plastic comb is more durable for someone who is playing it all of the time and occasionally dipping it in liquid at a show; or, if your girlfriend, kids or dogs get a hold of it, drool all over it and throw it in the pool. The Bb is used for playing second position (also known as "cross-harp" or "blues harp") when the band is playing in the key of "F major" or in "D minor." I have been using these harps for 30 years on stage. If you are into doing reed modifications, this is not the best harp for that; you can do it of course; but, that is a really specialized thing and I never knew Little Walter to do it so I don't mess with it, I'd spend my time practicing and listening to some old harmonica masters if I were you.
