Seydel Harmonica - 16306 1847 Silver Paddy Richter - SELECT KEY |
|
|
|
The 16306 1847 Silver Paddy Richter employs the Paddy Richter tuning developed by Brendan Power, specifically for playing Irish and other celtic tunes. Paddy Richter tuning provides the missing sixth without bending in the lower octave when playing in first position. It is also ideal for playing Aeolian Minor (Natural Minor) mode in fourth position and Dorian Minor mode in third position, The tuning provides the root note in the bottom octave in fourth position (which is missing in standard Richter tuning), and similarly provides the missing fifth in the bottom octave in third position. |
The 1847 SILVER- corrosion-free Richter-diatonic harmonica with stainless steel reeds
The 1847 SILVER impresses by its unprecedented visual appearence but also by new technical features.
- besides the reeds and the rivets the cover plates and reedplate screws are made of Stainless Steel
- reedplates made of non-corrosive German Silver
- solid polymer comb
Well known features of the 1847 CLASSIC were transferred to the 1847 Silver:
- less air-loss due to fine-cut reedplates - optimised flatness and extremely small tolerances between reed and reedplate
- beard- and lip-friendly coverplates with rounded edges without any cuts at the mouthpiece
- the overtone-rich sound can spread out unhindered - covers opened wide at the back and crimped and therefore a good stability and rounded edges
And the sound of the 1847 SILVER? Try to find out if you like it even better than the sound of the 1847 CLASSIC!
