As close to authentic Civil War period as we can find. These are made by C.A. Seydel, the world's oldest harmonica maker since 1847. The "Solist" harmonica has a beechwood comb (sealed to protect against mositure and swelling) and screwed reedplates. Each is handmade and tuned by the human ear! Availabe in key of C. A soft leather case and polishing cloth is included.
