Lee Oskar Harmonica, Major Key of F Sharp

I really like Lee Oskar. I have a full set of Major diatonic keys. They do require more air to blow since the holes are larger, and since the walls are thinner, they require mor precise positioning in your mouth. All of this makes you a better player in the long run.

This harmonica has everything you would want in a harmonica, including detailed instructions about how to customise it for new tones with different plates (?!?!). I'm a beginner harmonica player, so I'll be watching videos on how to play this thing, but I like the sound so far, and am impressed that it's so well-labelled on the box with the key, which in my case is F# (to match the key my band plays in). For some reason, there are hardly any harmonicas available in the many otherwise well-stocked music shops of the city I live in, Singapore (some don't carry any at all!!), and certainly none in F#!! I was very happy to be able to find this online, and that it delivers to Singapore, which is not always the case.

Great harmonica, I have some Lee Oskar harps for about 20 years that still sound great. I love Hohner Special 20. I still love these more. I recommend getting your favorite key and trying one out, you will not regret it.

I've been using Oskars almost exclusively for a long time. I find the action is nice and crisp, and I have no trouble bending at all. The holes tend to be a bit larger making single notes easier for me to find. I just replaced a very nice Hohner Marine Band in Dd with another Oskar. It blew a reed and I can't even get to it to fix it. Oskars are very easy to work on, I can almost always free them up!

Good, quality product. To my ear, Oscars are little shrill but they are quality harps with replaceable reed plates which are cheaper to replace than the whole thing. 40 bux for harmonica is crazy to me but all the manufacturers have had to raise thier prices..I use Lee Oskars and Hohner Special 20's.

Well worth the money

The best harmonicas I have found for blues and folk. They pitch bend very easily, and are completely re-buildable if necessary... But I have never had to re-build them. I like the plastic comb better than the wooden combs found in most other harmonica brands. It doesn't swell, it's easy to clean, and Lee Oskars are reliable.

Pretty nice build quality. I needed this for some G songs that we drop down to Fsharp. Worked great.

Nuff said. It's a lee oskar

The sound range of this harmonica is quite high. I think because this is a stepped down harmonica to assist guitar singers wanting to step a song down from G, it might be slightly too low in a traditional range so they jumped it up an octave. If you play in 1st position with a singer who has stepped down from G - you will be playing an octave higher. Quality is outstanding though, lets get that straight

Does the job
