The Rocket represents the pinnacle of 157 years of harmonica experience and innovation. Hohner’s latest plastic combed harmonica is the loudest, most comfortable and most responsive diatonic harmonica on the market today. Like the Special 20 and Golden Melody, Hohner uses plastic for the Rocket’s comb material because plastic doesn’t swell which allows the harmonica to maintain its air tightness. The Rocket maintains its smooth curves and sleek design through to its cover plate which has no gaps between it and the reed plate. Harmonicas with gaps in the cover plate have traditionally been known to catch on facial hair. The wide open coverplate design with side vents give the Rocket the punchy loud sound that professional harmonica players crave. Try one today and discover for yourself why 4 out of 5 players around the world choose Hohner.
