Key of F

No Box Included

Price: $245.00

Adam Gussow’s Notes:

• Light wear
• Some corrosion
• Very good

This Hohner Marine Band in F shows clear signs of use.  There is some tarnish on the covers from Sonny’s hands and lips.  There is a slight bit of corrosion on the edge of the covers where they meet the leading edge of the reed plates.  My guess is that this harmonica was put away wet and never played again.  It would be your call whether you clean the corrosion off or leave it.  Overall, a very nice harmonica.

In addition to the actual estate harmonica, all purchases will also include the following:

• A Certificate of Authenticity from the Sonny Terry Estate LLC.
• An attractive Shadow Box Display Case with a brief Biography of Sonny with which to display your estate harmonica.
• A stock black and white photo of either Sonny alone or Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee – suitable for framing. These photos were provided by Hohner and were the photos that Sonny might hand out at performances.   (Picture frame not included.)
