Seydel Sampler, C/G Reviews

5 Rating 1 Reviews
Read Eagle Music Shop Reviews

The Seydel Sampler is a real must have for the ambitious melody-player: One instrument in two keys and three full octaves available. Available in C/G, D/A or G/D. The SAMPLER is the ideal instrument for playing popular melodies, Folk-music and Irish Folk and a real new challenge for all lovers of the "Chromatic Blues Sound"! The slider switches between two keys (C and G or A and D). - Solo-tuning in the keys of C and G or A and D or D and D. - Three fulll oktaves in two keys, conveniently swichable with the slider or lockable - Half-valving, some important bending notes (Bending: technique for lowering the notes) - Full sound, thanks to the Stainless-Steel reeds for dynamic playing and good tone response - Corrosion-free German Silver reedplates - Precision made acrylic comb – very airtight and durable - Optimized free-moving and air-tight slider-mechanism with innovative locking device for optional fixing of the pressed slider - Ergonomic mouthpiece with round holes (silver plated) for lip-friendly playing - Corrosion-free Stainless Steel covers, opened wide at the back for optimized sound projection - Variable slider setting... C/G model...if the slider is turned 180° the instrument plays in G (open slider) and C (slider depressed) (default is C-->G after swapping the slider G-->C) - the mouthpiece must be unmounted to switch over the slider. A/D model...if the slider is turned 180° the instrument plays in A (open slider) and D (slider depressed) (default is D-->A after swapping the slider A-->D) - the mouthpiece must be unmounted to switch over the slider. * Pressing the slider does not give the semi-note of the chromatic scale like on chromatic harmonicas. The slider does lower the notes for a perfect forth. Therefore the instrument can be played in two differnt keys but the chromatic scale is not available (without playing bending notes). The SAMPLER is not a tremolo harmonica.

“I cannot understand why the Sampler trio of harmonicas are not more popular. The ability to switch keys at the press of a button is wonderful. Seydel quality oozes out of the Sampler's, and it really is like this single harmonica is just like having 2 Diatonic's in the same body.”
