Suzuki S-64C Sirius With Cross Slide Chromatic Harmonica
The Suzuki S-64C Sirius is a flagship 16-hole chromatic harmonica, crafted for professional musicians who demand tonal clarity, wide range, and uncompromising performance. As part of Suzuki’s top-tier Sirius series, the S-64C features a full 4-octave range and is tuned to the key of C, making it suitable for all genres—from classical and jazz to contemporary and cinematic music.
Designed for expressive performance and technical precision, the S-64C incorporates a traditional cross slide system, ensuring fast, reliable semitone transitions with excellent airtightness. This mechanism is favored by players who value smooth operation and consistent response, especially when executing complex chromatic passages.
The S-64C is equipped with 64 phosphor bronze reeds, engineered for tonal consistency and extended durability. These reeds deliver a warm, responsive sound with rich dynamics and clarity throughout the instrument’s full range. Whether performing soft melodic lines or dynamic solos, the S-64C provides articulate expression and effortless control.
The harmonica’s body features a solid brass comb, which contributes to its rich resonance, tonal balance, and enhanced projection. Brass is a preferred material in professional harmonicas due to its density and ability to deliver a clear, full-bodied sound with accurate pitch stability across registers.
A comfortable, ergonomic mouthpiece paired with a finely engineered cross slide allows for easy movement and smooth breath control. The stainless steel cover plates add to the sleek design and offer durability for professional use on stage or in the studio. The weight and construction quality provide a satisfying, balanced feel in hand.
Built to the highest standards of Japanese craftsmanship, each S-64C harmonica is hand-assembled by expert technicians. Suzuki ensures that every unit undergoes precise quality checks for tuning accuracy, reed response, and slide alignment. The instrument comes with a premium protective case for safe transport and storage.
For musicians who require a versatile and powerful chromatic harmonica with extended range and refined tonal characteristics, the Suzuki S-64C Sirius stands as one of the most advanced models available today. It is a trusted companion for performers, educators, and recording professionals alike.
