Reply To: Hohner 44 reed broken. Help
Hi Yannis!
I just replaced the reeds in my Hammond 44HP last night.
I’m in the US and it was difficult to find replacement reeds here too. Suzuki US said they were out of stock and couldn’t tell me exactly when they’d be in other than that it’d be a while.
So, thanks to another forum member here, who provided contact info, I ordered them from Japan. The info is: westmusic_2@shop.rakuten.co.jp

I bought two full sets of replacement reeds for approximately $150 USD including shipping. As far as I can tell, the reeds are only sold in full sets, so you can’t buy just the one reed plate you need alone.
They are very easy to install yourself, though, although it does involve unscrewing many small screws.
