PRO-44HP V2 High Power Alto Elektric / Acoustic Melodion Hammond

The newest member of the Hammond-Suzuki
Melodion family is the 44HP or "High- Power"
model.

Taking the 44H a step beyond, the 44HP has new
reeds that give a brighter, louder sound.

The perforated body allows more sound to escape,
making this model perfect for electric band use.

Like the 44H, the 44HP has a built-in microphone,
however this deluxe Melodion is the first to sport a
44-note keyboard and a built-in microphone with
volume control.

Its strong yet lightweight construction is built to last,
like any Hammond. Its tone is warm and deep, from
the phosphor bronze reeds.

The Hammond 44H and HP model is the first Melodion
that incorporates a built-in Dynamic Microphone, which
creates less mechanical noise compared to an external
microphone and an exceptional clear reed sound with
H.D. quality Sound reproduction.

This unique microphone creates a very warm and deep
sound that can't be matched by an external microphone.

The Hammond 44HP incorporates the first 44 note
piano style keyboard on a Melodion instrument.

he lowest  keyboard note is c and ends at g3.
This wider range keyboard is especially useful when
playing the Acoustic/Electric Melodion in a solo
performance.

The keyboard has a slightly shallow key stroke
compared to other keyboard products. This aids
the musician when fast fingering or glissandos
are required.

There are three types of mouthpieces included with
the Hammond 44.

With the Short mouthpiece and hand-strap, you
can play the Hammond 44 upright like a trumpet,
r use the Flexible mouthpiece to hold the 44 at
arm's length, sling the 44 on like a guitar (with a guitar
strap and the included strap buttons).

Using the L Joint long mouthpiece you
can play it as a table-top instrument, with the option
of putting it on top of your organ, piano or synth.

The Hammond 44 is the finest, most deluxe and
most versatile Melodion (Keyboard Harmonica) ever
produced. Designed in collaboration with leading
Harmonica manufacturer Suzuki Musical Inst. Mfg
. Co., Ltd. the Hammond 44 offers many unique
features that will compliment all facets of music.

Pops, Jazz, Roots, Rock, Country, Blues, Latin,
Reggae, World/Ethnic and Folk... the Hammond
44 High power is perfect for all of these genres.
