Suzuki Hammond 10-hole diatonic harmonica - D

Introducing the Suzuki Hammond 10-Hole diatonic harmonica

Inspired by the legendary sound of the Hammond organ, the Suzuki HA-20 blends iconic style with cutting-edge harmonica design. Featuring the unmistakable Hammond logo set against a bold black finish, this harp isn’t just an instrument — it's a statement.

Beneath the polished exterior, the HA-20 features a black-anodized aluminum comb for outstanding brightness, airtight construction, and quick response. Its rich, full-bodied tone and sharp projection make it ideal for live performances where presence and clarity are key.

Pro-level build and playability

The precision-engineered phosphor bronze reeds and brass reed plates offer a smooth, expressive feel with excellent tuning stability. Whether you're bending, overblowing, or simply playing clean lines, the Hammond delivers a consistent and satisfying response across all registers.

The brass cover plates are coated in a durable black finish that not only enhances the aesthetics but also improves grip and playability.

A harmonica with real soul

Originally released as a limited-edition model, the Hammond harmonica quickly became a player favourite and has remained a permanent fixture in the Suzuki lineup. Housed in a protective hard shell case, it’s ready for the road, the studio, or wherever inspiration takes you.

How are Suzuki harmonicas labelled?

When choosing a harmonica, it’s important to know how the key is labelled—and Suzuki makes it simple. Unlike some brands that label their instruments by the second position (often used for blues), Suzuki harmonicas are labelled according to the first position, also known as straight harp. This means the key printed on the harmonica is the key you get when playing melodies in first position. The handy table below shows you the corresponding keys for playing in each position. For example, if you want to play in the key of C in second position (C mixolydian), you need an F harmonica.

• First position - standard major scale, ideal for folk melodies and simple pop songs
• Second position - mixolydian mode, perfect for the blues
• Third position - dorian mode, lending a darker, minor soundscape
