    Product: East top Chromatic Forerunner 1248NV or T12-48NV (NV stands for Valveless)Out of the box, every hole works. This is big for me. I recently purchased Hohner 64 Chromonica (16 holes) and Hohner CX12 Chromatic (12 holes) both in C key. Out of the box both with 3-4 holes not working no sound. I watched Hohner Service Workshop on YouTube on how to make adjustment on the reeds. The sound came out but not responsive and sound horrible. I contacted the seller through Amazon with no help. I contacted Hohner in Germany HQ and they sent me to Hohner US under warranty repair. Both chromatic harmonicas have sent to the shop and told would take 3 weeks after receiving them and 3 days quarantine with limited weekly work hours. The Hohner chromatic harmonicas have awesome sound if every hole works.I wanted an inexpensive chromatic harmonica to practice. I found the East top T12-48NV on Amazon for $45 something. Since it has no valve, I can do some heavy duty practice without worrying damage the wind savers (subject to fatigue much easier). The sound quality from this budget valveless chromatic harmonica is not in the same caliber as compared to the higher end chromatic harmonicas that have valves. The higher end chromatic harmonicas with valves or wind savers are air tight since the wind savers or valves will make the chromatic plays air tight. Also, seemed the sound comes out from the T12-48NV a little weaker than my Hohner, but Hey, this beauty’s every hole is working great with the tunes play accurately. Amazingly, this budget 12 hole chromatic harmonica is built in surprisingly good quality with good materials and great looking. Slider works great and smoothly without clicking sound. You can feel the weight when you hold the T12-48NV in hands but not heavy. Strangely, I thought the sound came out a bit weaker but the recorded practice session with the T12-48NV sounded great and laud.I am happy and can play it as much as I want without worrying a thing about if the sound will come out or not or something wrong especially the wind savers will get damaged and the blow holes will not play the notes. The T12-48NV does require a bit more air and you can feel it compared to the chromatic harmonicas with the valves or wind savers. I am very happy with the T12-48NV as my practice harmonica. As a practice harmonica, I can’t find any better one to take over this one.I heard from one of the elite harmonica pros on YouTube or some Website, the East top T12-48-Brass Comb or T12-48-Copper Comb is up there in the market against the best. Since the comb is brass or copper, the sound comes out from these two models are awesome. Normally brass comb will cost a lot more, but the East top T12-48-Brass Comb is not in 4 figures it’s around $350. I will check it out if my Hohner chromatic harmonicas break.

    Reviewed in Italy on January 5, 2024
    Ottima armonica cromatica per principianti, ma anche il suonatore più avanzato potrà togliersi qualche bella soddisfazione. Suono ok, niente note stonate. Sensibilità nella media, ma come tutte le armoniche funziona meglio quando è riscaldata (ma senza avere il problema delle valvole).
    Il corpo in plastica e la copertura in acciaio la rendono resistente e permettono di pulirla senza tante preoccupazioni.
    Prezzo in rapporto alla qualità è sicuramente un suo punto a favore che non vi farà rimpiangere di averla acquistata. Ideale per portarsela sempre in giro come strumento "da battaglia".
    E' la migliore cromatica che ho suonato? No, ma costa un terzo delle marche più famose e il suono non è assolutamente male. Lascio ai virtuosi dello strumento la voglia di spendere ben altre cifre.
