You won’t be recruited anytime soon for the diplomatic corps, Ofir.

But Ofir did not say I may need a different set of <b>ears</b> instead, ha-ha, though this also could be the case! 🙂

The Yamaha has a warmer, richer, smoother, more mellow sound. The Hohner has a thinner, tinnier sound with much less character.

I become more and more interested in Yamaha after your explanations! I’m not sure I’m completely satisfied with the sound of Hohner, at least not at the whole range. Luckily it seems I’ve at last found the shop in our place which has Yamahas in stock and hope to get there in a week and test it alive. Surely it is not just to judge by recordings 🙂
