* Please See Ordering Instructions belowThe Harmonica with a Whammy Bar!
The TurboSlide is custom made from the fabulous Seydel Session Steel featuring our patented magnetic slide system that allows the player to bend either one or all the blow notes at once. Our patented slide system actually works by adjusting the stiffness of the reeds, lowering the pitch..up to one whole step. With up to one whole step of bending power, it is like having both a diatonic and chromatic harmonica in one. The TurboSlide Session Steel also lets you introduce your very own tremolo so you can achieve the unique sound of a Hammond organ.
How to Operate
It's super easy - just press the button!
You can press the button before blowing to play a fixed pitch or while you're blowing to produce a bend.
How it Works
The TurboSlide represents a new generation of harmonica, somewhat adopting the characteristics of both the diatonic and chromatic harp. By sliding our patented magnet toward/away from the reed, the pitch can be adjusted manually.
The current version of the TurboSlide is equipped with 10 magnets attached to a common carriage - one magnet for each blow reed (we're currently working on a model with draw reeds included in the system as well).
Putting it all together, the current version of the TurboSlide provides the "missing" flatted semitones on the blow notes and greater control over the blow bends of the top register.
