Can you replace the reeds on this harmonica and if so, how do you do it?

I got it for my birthday, and I've always wanted one but I don't really know anything about this instrument. Any advice or tips will be useful. Thanks!

Answer 1

I doubt it but you could contact Hohner.

If the Harmonica is beyond use. I am pretty sure you can pry off the covers and look at the reed setup.  If they are individually mounted, you might be able to install new ones if you can find them. The covers can then be pressed back in place using the small brads or nails that held the covers in place.

However for the price of the instrument it isn't practical.
