Brief Description
It's no secret that today's harmonica microphones are sonically and physically lacking in comparison to their vintage counterparts. We set out to change that: Introducing the Harp Blaster HB52, an exciting collaboration between HOHNER and sE Electronics.
Instead of looking at competing products to sculpt the Harp Blaster's sound, we took our inspiration from a select group of professional players. The goal was to create an exceptional mic ideally suited to their needs, engineered to uncompromising standards, combining fantastic sound quality with optimal ease of use and maximum durability. After all, if a microphone can become a seamless extension of the artist's emotive output – rather than a distraction or an obstacle – the music can flow unhindered and achieve maximum sonority and expression. Together, HOHNER and sE chased down this ideal, creating a state-
of-the-art product that will satisfy the most discerning harmonica player.
The Harp Blaster HB52 is a serious modern microphone using highest quality components. Handcrafted completely out of metal, it boasts a specially designed dynamic element for the authentic vintage sound, a thick die cast body with zinc alloy parts and chrome detailing. Not only will it withstand the uniquely brutal conditions a harp mic can face on a nightly basis; it will do so while enabling vastly superior tone in comparison to other harmonica microphones.

Tips for practical use
The Harp Blaster HB52 was designed with input from professional harp players to ensure that it's comfortable to hold, cup, and use for long periods of time. The mic features a volume control utilizing a Bourns potentiometer and a knurled chrome knob, making it slip-proof and reliable. If you'd prefer not to have a volume control, it can be disabled internally.
We opted to use an XLR jack, as opposed to an attached cable or a 1/4'' jack, to avoid a common Achilles' heel among harmonica microphones. An attached cable can easily suffer a broken solder joint, transforming the mic into a paperweight until it can be repaired. An XLR jack provides better connectivity, that won't become noisy or fussy over time like a 1/4'' jack, and its
internal locking mechanism adds extra signal security - in case the cable gets tugged, snagged, or stepped on. However, the locking mechanism of the HB52's XLR jack is also easily disabled, if that's your preference.
As mentioned earlier, this microphone is not delicate. In the throes of performing, you can drop it, kick it, and/or drive nails with it. It is built to be a roadworthy tool. Just do us a favor and don't submerge it in boiling water, or anything similarly ridiculous. Barring that, it should last a lifetime!
