The Crossover is a modern version of the Marine Band 1896 whose manufacturing quality has been designed for the versatile professional musician wishing to play blues, rock, jazz, soul and funck all at the same time. The laminated bamboo wooden base (patent pending) is perfectly stable to receive the plates, which are screwed and no longer nailed. The instrument is therefore remacably waterproof and delivers a sharp and powerful sound, particularly suitable for all styles of acoustic music but also for amplified playing. The right tuning allows the melodic play note by note in the different positions while offering full and round chords. A perfect addition to the Marine Band family.
