From the manufacturer
Hohner Tremolo Series Echo Harp 2x48 - The Folk Classic
As J.R.R. Tolkien famously noted in his epic saga Lord of the Rings, “Not all those who wander are lost”. Wandering through beautiful countryside is certainly a rewarding experience, especially with the right musical accompaniment. And making music in the home with family or friends is one of the most uplifting social activities of all. Or you can take a little piece of home with you wherever you go. The Echo Harp 2 x 48 is the classic HOHNER tremolo harmonica, with a tonal range of well over 3 octaves in each of two different keys. With its sweet-toned, evocative sound, it has been a folk music favorite for generations, and its small size and low weight make it destined to be your travelling companion, whether you travel on foot or by car.

The reeds are light and have a beautiful sound that does not need a lot of breath. Even the lowest notes are easy to play. In fact, I find that blowing too hard can make the notes sound wrong, this is especially true at the upper end of the scale. (Blowing too hard can make any harmonica sound wrong, but this one seems to be a bit more sensitive than, say, the Marine Band or Blues Harp.) The Echo Harp can be played louder or softer, as with any harmonica, it just doesn't take as much difference in breath. Also, I have found that you can, in fact, bend notes as you play, but again, I find that a gentle difference will produce the note I want and too strong a blow or draw can make it sound wrong.
As noted in the description, this harmonica has two diatonic scales, one side tuned to C, the other to G. This is what gives this harmonica it's unique appearance. The holes you see in the side plates of the harmonica are where the sound comes out, since there is no open back (that being the other key) - because of this it is difficult to add a vibrato sound using your hands, but the tremolo sound makes up for that, especially on sustained notes.
This is a very beautiful harmonica and has a unique look because of the C/G keys, meaning (as I said above) there is no open back. The cover plates have a scroll-work pattern around the edges and the name (Echo) on the C side, and the M. Honer trademark on the G side. The comb is a lovely white maple wood which Honer's website says is double-lacquered, so it should last a very long time without swelling, drying or cracking (admittedly, I've only ever had one harmonica comb crack - my dad's old 64 Chromonica which was purchased around 1940).
I am totally thrilled with this harmonica. It's unique sound lends itself very well to folk songs as well as cowboy classics (such as "Cool Water") and many other types. If you love playing harmonica and want to branch out from your old standard 10-hole diatonic, this could be just what you're looking for.
Eureka! I took a chance on this one and it works perfectly:
Hohner KM4307 Extra-wide Harmonica Holder
You can see by my pictures and I also included the back of the package it came in that says it "will work with the Echo Harp".
I asked this question in Q.A. section and someone answered "No" but they are wrong!
Love my Echo Harp. Accordion played by mouth. Not a blues harp.

Dislikes - Pricey. Harp lacks markings to indict key reed at each octave (I had to use an electronic tuner to find and mark the slots). I don’t recommend this harp for beginners. No markings on harp to indicate where it was manufactured (box states “Made in DE” - Germany).

First, the product came defective, several notes did not play correctly,
Second, check the return policy, which states that they cannot return a harmonica after it's been received due to health reason. I do understand that, as I wouldn't want my mouth where someone else had been playing it- but it was defective!?!?
Third, I was instructed to send it back to Hohner to have it repaired.
Fourth, Fifth, Sixth: I had to send, receive, and send again three times! Each returned item was again defective. Finally after the third return I got one that works "ok".
Poor product, poor service!
