Seydel 10301G Blues Session Steel — Key G Harmonica

The Seydel 10301G Blues Session Steel in Key G harmonica combines over 160 years of harmonica craftsmanship with modern precision, delivering robust projection, responsive playability, and versatile tone suitable for blues, rock, folk, and studio environments.

1 | Stainless Steel Cover Plates

Precision-pressed stainless steel cover plates provide exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and clear projection. Each plate is milled to exact tolerances and finished with a bead-blasted satin texture to minimize glare. Ergonomic bevels along the mouthpiece ensure comfortable lip contact and optimize airflow, facilitating articulate expression and dynamic range.

2 | Sealed Pearwood Comb

The comb, crafted from sustainably sourced European pearwood, is sealed with a food-safe coating to prevent moisture absorption and warping. This sealing enhances tuning stability and preserves the comb’s warm, resonant qualities. Smooth contours and rounded mouthpiece edges provide ergonomic comfort for long playing sessions.

3 | Brass Reed Plates & Stainless Steel Reeds

Traditional brass reed plates offer warmth and stability, while laser-cut stainless steel reeds ensure bright attack, fast response, and long-lasting performance. Each reed is individually calibrated for balanced volume and precise bending, enabling smooth overblows and accurate pitch across the 10-hole Richter layout.

4 | 10-Hole Richter Tuning in G Major

Richter tuning in Key G Major provides strong draw bends on holes 1–6 and extended melodic range on holes 7–10. This configuration supports classic cross-harp blues riffs, expressive folk melodies, and rock solos. The harmonica’s tuning is meticulously adjusted to ensure even airflow, consistent volume, and reliable intonation.

5 | Removable Reed-Plate Assembly

The reed-plate assembly is easily detachable via stainless steel screws, allowing for convenient cleaning, reed replacement, and voicing adjustments. A precision screwdriver and cleaning brush are included to perform maintenance on the go. Reassembly maintains airtight seals and reed alignment to preserve original tonal character.
