Seydel Harmonicas

Seydel Harmonicas is a German harmonica manufacturer founded in 1847. Its range includes diatonic and chromatic harmonicas, alongside accessories and replacement parts. The brand is particularly known for its use of stainless-steel reeds, including in the 1847 and Session Steel ranges.

Seydel offers harmonicas in numerous keys and tunings. Alongside standard Richter-tuned models, its catalogue includes low-tuned instruments and alternative layouts such as Paddy Richter, Natural Minor and Melodic Maker. The 1847 Classic, Silver and Noble are established lines within its diatonic range.

At MyGear’s partner retailers, Seydel has 271 products in stock, with prices ranging from £4 to £759. This span covers inexpensive accessories through to higher-priced instruments, rather than representing harmonica prices alone. The supplied retail categories include Cases & bags and Hand percussion, although harmonicas are the brand’s principal instruments.
