The HummingMate is an easy-to-hold compact version of Suzuki's popular SU-21h humming tremolo. Available in keys of C and Am, it has 13 holes and 8 notes, and produces a beautiful Old World sound. Tremolo harmonicas are diatonic models constructed with double holes, each containing two reeds tuned to the same note. Each reed is tuned slightly higher than the other and when played together, this slight difference in tuning creates a beautiful vibrato or tremolo sound. Many different kinds of gospel and Old World music sound wonderful using tremolo-style harmonicas. This one just makes them sound that much better.
