I am a beginner, and therefore probably not the first target group for this kind of harmonica, but I thought I would try a range of different harmonicas to see which one would "klick".
Aside from another way-over-my-budget-harmonica from France which I got, this Suzuki is certainly above the usual budget for beginner harmonicas. Still - it does feel right, it's easy to play and I get sound that actually feels like music, and it does not require heavy work on the blows or draws. I still need to try bends (so far, I'm stuck at regular scales and easy improvising), but it already feels kinda "natural" to play on this harp.
I have to say that, perhaps, the sound is a bit too light for my liking, but then again is the "A" better sounding to my ears than a regular "C" harp, as it's deeper in general.
When it comes to the feel of the harp, then I can say that it feels high-quality, looks it, too, and I think I can trust on it for being with me for some time.
What might need some training is the fact that it easily responds to air - you don't have to play hard to get your tone, you actually have to be careful not to blow / draw too hard on it as not to destroy it.
All in all, I like this one, and may try next the Hammond to compare it with the Sky.
