Seydel 1847

Building a harmonica with stainless steel reeds has always been regarded as a milestone.
And at last Seydel has done it!

Seydel have produced the first serial-produced Richter-diatonic harmonica with stainless steel reeds. The 1847, which represents the founding year of the Seydel factory, is an impressive innovation that has been described as "a master's instrument for maximum ambitions".

The harp has a fully sealed, absolutely soak-free comb (from maple timber) rounded at the front, to give a better seal to the lips, plus there is some additional bevelling on the inside. Clever use of colouring, resulting from laser cutting, combined with a front polishing process, gives the comb its specific design and appearance.

Other features include:

  • Full, powerful, rich sound with extremely fast responsiveness due to stainless steel reeds
  • Stainless steel reeds and rivets enhances durability, especially with intense use
  • Less air-loss due to fine-cut reedplates - optimized flatness and extremely small tolerances between reed and reedplate
  • Round-edged coverplates with ergonomic built hole-openings and rounded dividers prevent cuts from the mouthpiece
  • The rich sound spread out undampened due to the covers made of extra strong chrome plated 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
