The first serial-produced Richter-diatonic harmonica with stainless steel reeds.

1847 CLASSIC Low available as well in extra low keys: LF#-LLE:

  • Full and loud, overtone-rich sound and extremely fast tone-response due to stainless steel reeds
  • Very long durability and even with heavy duty playing - stainless steel reeds and stainless steel rivets
  • Less air-loss due to fine-cut reed plates - optimized flatness and extremely small tolerances between reed and reed plate
  • Beard- and lip-friendly - coverplates with rounded edges without any cuts at the mouthpiece and ergonomic built hole-openings and rounded dividers
  • The overtone-rich sound can spread out undampened - covers made of extra strong stainless steel sheet (0.4mm), opened wide at the back and crimped and therefore a good stability and rounded edges
  • Moisture-proof, swelling-free maple-comb, sealed with multiple layers of food-safe finish
