Reply To: Hohner Pro 36
Hello Zoran,
Since nobody has yet responded to your inquiry, I will by saying that the Melodica World expert on the Professional 36 is Melodica-Me. He owns several as well as related models and has worked on them successfully. He definitely knows what he’s doing. Melodica-Me may be tired of repeating what he has said about the kind of issue you’re having and the advice that he has given to some of us. I have a leaky one I started to work on, but I got frustrated and then was able to acquire another that is in good playing condition. However, it is still hard for me to play, as this model takes a lot of air even if not leaky.
I suggest that you use Search in the Forums to identify past discussion of the Pro 36. Search “Professional.” But you might start with this:
My guess is that if Hohner is willing to work on your Pro 36, it will be very expensive.
I’m sure others as well as myself would be interested in more information on how you modified with wood.
