Bob Dylan Harmonica

[Ahmabehr]

Good advie, I won't eat it.

[Lowdenjim]

I have numerous Hohner Marine Band harps I bought back in the mid-60's. The covers are marred with rust and the wooden combs distorted with warping. They became unplayable within months of purchase but I don't have the heart to throw them out - it's that Dylan nostalgia thing; I played most of his early songs on them. Now I have Suzuki, Hammond, Hohner Special 20's and Lee Oskars, but for me the best value harps by some margin are the Lee Oskars. I would never buy a wooden-combed harp.

[boobalatorr]

lol pritty funny you are

[TomPsychic]

oops, I already ate it!

Cheers. x



[Tommymkll]

you kinda look like alan sugar, great vid mate

[himbaTZia]

Could you tell me the scale that bob dylan was using?

thanks!

[benhewlettuk]

@himbaTZia On which song? Blowing in the wind uses a C major scale.

[Martyhuana1]

Daaaaaaamn nice harmonica!! About how many would it cost?

[Grunow101]

@Martyhuana1 the cheapest i saw it online was $60

[loloman117]

I JUST BOUGHT IT! :D

[KSTLAB]

Do not eat, jajaja

[jemsd]

So what are you trying to do? Sounds like your just trying to sell the harp. You offer very little in the way of anything constructive. I mean who the hell wants that stupid dumb looking bag? I mean are you serious???????

[skywardism]

I was thinking of buying one and I never thought there'd be a review. So thanks for the time and effort.

[SEEDOFFILTH33]

Hey man, i've been a big fan off bob dylan for a while now and have decided i wanna buy (and learn haha) a harmonica, what key harp do i want if i want to play dylan stuff and also rock/blues (muddy waters, aerosmith)? thanks in advance

[quakiboy]

it says "do not eat", good thing, good advice... HILARIOUS

[Unzaman]

Your face is like: "Its serious buisenes".

[maggottron333]

Is the signature his actual autograph? Or is it just like an auto-pen writing of his signature?

[benhewlettuk]

@maggottron333 I forget now, I haven't seen one for a year or so but it will surely be stamped onto the mold of the coverplate. Ben

[Currdogger69]

hi just wondering, how do you order the signature series, becuase when i click 'how to buy' it only shows me the hand signed $25 000 and $5000 ones..... :S

[chumkui999]

fuck me this guys got some time on his hands

[MrMatto91]

oh my God i have the same harmonica. i got mine in Japan.

[nicsymons]

hey there. i was wondering if there is much difference between this and the marine band deluxe? i don't have the opportunity to try.

[benhewlettuk]

@nicsymons Yes, there is a difference - try both or read some reviews!

[yourfaceisugly234]

Ordered one today, How long did yours take to come?

[joeydeeman48901]

"It says 'Do not eat.'....... Good advice."

[CharlieMcCotton]

I just bought the Bob Dylan 7 Harp Signature set and

it`s worth the $700 I payed for it! The sound is incredible!

[CharlieMcCotton]

Take this out, whitch says "Do not eat"

Good advise, I won`t eat it. LOL

[mangachang]

just got one today!...time to learn

[hikinguphigh]

were do you get all the new cover plates screws etc

kind regrads

[benhewlettuk]

@hikinguphigh I can probably get them for you, or a google search will reveal a supplier.

[benhewlettuk]

@hikinguphigh Any harp repairer will help you find spares.

[hiian123]

well this thing is pretty cool and you can get it for 600 bucks....or you can get a marine band thats just as good for 30

[hikinguphigh]

@hiian123 this dont cost 600 buks

[theCoaccused]

the lesson here folks is this: This item should be considered purely for well to do bob dylan or harmonica collectors.. OR the most eccentric of Bob Dylan fans. Why? well, this signature series is released to pay tribute to the relationship between Bob Dylan and those cheapo marine band harmonica's that he always plays. That's right, Bobby himself just played on the regular one you play on. So, a Hohner Marine Band Harp at your local store is probably good enough.. unless you a collect :)

[Norminatus]

nice...

[SaintEve1105]

Oh that sounds great. Beautiful instrument.

[Duyaj]

Oh , too bad.. I don't like the cover plate's shape of the big river harmonica. But still is a nice collectable and certainly, a great harp.

[KlonoaDreamVids]

I've just recently become obsessed with Bob Dylan, and I'm really looking for a good harp for cheap. I was looking into an Old Standby from Hohner, but I'm really not sure if that's too cheap...any suggestions?

[argydaf]

Nice video...i like harmonica's sound and i was thinking of buying one and learn some stuff,do you think that a hohner silver star is good for a begginer like me or i should buy something else?

[duch182]

i wanted it so bad but i was real bummed when i saw it was like $100

[benhewlettuk]

@duch182

Yes, too bad isn't it.

[duch182]

@benhewlettuk

ya man

im 13 were do i get that money

[benhewlettuk]

@duch182

Maybe pick a harp to suit your budget right now, then get out there and do some busking - and then you'll have the money for an expensive harp. Don't forget you are paying for the name on the box and the box itself here - if you don't need a flashy box you should try a Marine Band deluxe or the standard Marine Band, they are great harps and might suit you better. Good luck! Ben

[harmonicazhin]

@benhewlettuk That's fantastic advice.

[tigermale]

I have the same harp, but i never play it much, don't wanna break it., so i bought a regular marine band deluxe, which is about the same. It's a sweet piece of harp, though

[annaraith]

Thanks so much for the video!

Is that on of the Dylan Handsigned Series Hohner harmicas which cost 5,000 USD?

(They also come in a set of seven harmonicas in different keys for 25,000 USD.)

[Scoobydoobiedoo2]

really nice

[elkrobber]

Hmmm... it looks like the blues harp comb with the big river cover plates.

[tigermale]

although it is a marine band deluxe?!?!?!
