+ THE STORY

Hohner made the Pocket Pal for the player who wanted a harmonica that went everywhere without making a production of it. No case required. No ceremony. Just a 10-hole diatonic small enough to fit in a shirt pocket and ready whenever the moment called. Vintage Hohner construction means reeds that were made to last and a tone that holds up better than most of what replaced it. The wear on this one is honest — the character of an instrument that was carried, not stored.

+ WHY WE CHOSE IT

Because vintage Hohner at any size is a better instrument than most modern equivalents. Because the Pocket Pal is a specific and charming model with a name that delivers on its promise. Because a harmonica this small with this much history is worth finding.
