The Harrison B-Radical Harmonica has been one of the most eagerly awaited instrument launches of the 21st Century. In February of 2010, Harrison Harmonicas shipped the first 33 B-Radicals to anxious owners to become the only manufacturer in the United States to make 100% made in the USA harmonicas. Marketing his instrument as the Steinway of harmonicas, owner Brad Harrison has taken a radical departure from standard harmonica design by introducing the ability to replace his instrument’s reeds. This marks a sea change in the harmonica world, where musicians would typically toss an instrument once a reed had broken. Up until now, the inconsistent quality of mass produced instruments forced serious musicians to seek out custom craftsmen to correct material flaws and fine tune their instruments for professional play. With Harrison’s invention, the life expectancy of an instrument is virtually endless. Add to this the elegant rigid design of the B-Radical's streamlined body, and the quality of sound is amazing. Musicians who have played the first B-Radicals have been giving the instrument rave reviews. Orders are currently being accepted on-line, but there is a 16-20 week backlog. So, don't throw away your Marine Band just yet.
