Lee Oskar Harmonica 5-Pack with Case

Description

Includes 5 Lee Oskar Major Diatonic Harmonicas (keys of G, A, C, D, and F - lowest to highest) and a hardshell harmonica case to carry them. The Major Diatonic Harmonicas are more airtight, easier to bend, and better sounding than most other harps. The hardshell harmonica case features a black Tolex cover, imitation leather accents with creme piping, a plush interior, and a locking latch under the handle. Holds 20 diatonic and 2 chromatic harmonicas. Removable tray, plenty of room for cables, microphone, and accessories.Built in Japan to his exacting standards and incorporating new techniques and materials, it was in 1983 that Lee Oskar introduced his new harmonica. The radically different harp design grew out of Lee's frustration with the lack of quality and consistency in the mouth harps of the day. The design also benefited from Oskar's insights as a seasoned recording and touring pro. The Dane's Design Central to Oskar's design is a smooth plastic comb that doesn't swell like traditional wood combs. Aside from being easier to keep clean, the plastic comb is impervious to the swelling of conventional harmonica wood combs that can tear up the player's lips. By making affordable replacement reed plates available, Oskar's harps can be easily refurbished. You no longer need to toss out a harmonica because a reed or two has gone south. Replacement reed plates are available for every model in the Lee Oskar harmonica lineup and installation is easy since they mount to the comb with just three self-tapping screws. The reed plates have wide chambers and narrow dividers for faster, easier playing. A precision-molded, recessed bed holds the reed plate securely to prevent air leakage and project a bigger sound. The corrosion-proof, stainless steel cover plates are also engineered for excellent projection and tone. (Replacement cover plates are also available.) Lee Oskar harmonicas are tuned to 441-plus hertz for a brighter sound. With equal tuning

Bend it like Little Walter

I am a beginner harp player, so I tried several brands to find my favorite version of this popular pocket instrument. I tried the venerable Hohner Special--not bad. I tried a Marine Band version and then tried a Lee Oskar. The light plastic frame, the ease of "bending" a note and the fluid transition from note to note make this my choice of harp. The Lee Oskars are not commonly found in local music stores, so it's wonderful to have a place to order them. You need several harps--because diatonic harmonicas are tuned to a key and then, if played "cross harp" are really in the key up a fifth from the listed key. Anyway, you need a C, a D, an F and a G usually and an A is not bad to have, either. These are nice little harps. A repair kit is available, but frankly, unless you are devoted to a particular harp, just replace it when it goes bad.

The Best Blues Harp

Nothing compares hands down to the quality and versatility of this harp. Every part can be replaced, not that you'd need to unless you ran it over with a truck or something. These harps are the loudest I've played and the tone and ease I have playing them is unmatched by Hohners which I've also tried. The beard bite thing I ran into as well on occasion... but only when I was badly in need of a trim, in any case, covering the bolts with a piece of tape or a trim can easily fix this. I own several of these harps and will forever be a fan.

THESE ARE THE BEST!!!!

I have been a pro. player for over 40 years. These are the best 10 hole harmonicas that money can buy. Buy a few of these and PLEASE, get a REAL microphone, use a stand, and invent your own STYLE of playing!!!! There are way too many BLUES HARMONICA CLONES (many of them far too drunk to play) out there.

hard to find item

As a guitar and harmonica player who plays out in small clubs it is very hard to find a quality harmonica holder that perfectly holds 10 hole harmonicas .When your specialty is Bob Dylan Neal Young and Donavan covers you have to have a dependable holder that does not slip.This product is perfect for that type of music.I bought two so that I could have one set up in G and the other set up in D to cut down on set up time.

Best Harmonica Holder

I have tried EVERY type/brand of harmonica holder for the last 8 or 10 years and FINALLY found one that works great and doesn't look like some type of orthopedic device. I will caution anyone using this harp holder to be careful when adjusting it not to bend the flat stamped spots that keep the springs in place. I managed to break one that way but was still able to finish the show in spite it being broken because it's made so well. www.dalemarsh.com

Pretty Good

My complaints about this holder are that the way the screw turns on the left is counter-intuitive and it's hard to get your harmonica in and out of the spring clamp, I've even had my harmonica bent a couple of times because it's gotten caught in the wrong way.
But besides those complaints it's a good product and I'd recommend it.

Customer Reviews

Awsome Harp!

Don't be put off by the price. This is a the best harmonica I have ever played. It's comfortable to play and you can get amazing bends out of it. Plus I have been playing it for over a year and it's still going strong. It will save you money in the long run.

The best

I have owned about 30 different harps, including 5 Lee Oskars. The Lee Oskar is the best. Sounds good too. It bends easily when you want it to, and does not bend when you don't want it to. If you don't know how to bend the notes, get a Lee Oskar and learn how. Then you can bend notes on any of the others, but it is harder and does not sound as good. If you pay attention to the videos, most of the professionals use this brand. If you are a beginner, buy this because it make you sound better.

Simple,efficient,enduring,..

I bought this harmonica as an absolute beginner, and I loved it from the beginning. It sounds warm & vibrating.
Since then, I bought more expensive harmonicas. Still, this is the harmonica I love to play with the most because of its warmth, its sonic stability,and its simplicity(size, structure)-->makes it easier for you to show off techniques.
I highly recommend it, especially for beginners.
