"The Suzuki M-20 Manji is an exceptional example of intelligent design and specific attention to detail in a diatonic harmonica. The manufacturing quality and nuanced parameters are what make Suzuki a leading force in modern instrumental manufacturing. The rich tonal qualities and design implementations make the M-20 an instrument that I am proud to play."

"During live concert performances and in recording sessions, I'm very demanding of the harmonicas I play. In my opinion, Suzuki harmonicas are by far the best instruments available. They have everything needed in terms of durability, response, comfort and overall quality. Suzuki is also the only company totally committed to improving the quality of their products year after year. I hope you'll enjoy playing these instruments as much as I do."

"First of all I would like to say that I am very pleased to be working with Suzuki as a new endorsee. I am also proud to represent the new Manji model, and especially honored to have contributed to the design of this dynamic new diatonic harmonica. I feel that the Manji is very suited to my needs as an artist. It's sleek design is user friendly and fits comfortably in my hands. It is lightweight, yet delivers a full and rich tone, which as any serious blues harp player knows, is essential to a good performance. I am sure that the founder, Mr. Manji Suzuki is proud to have his name associated with this harmonica, and I am also very proud to play it."

"I was attending the SPAH convention in Sacramento this last August, and had visited all of the harmonica companies that were present. My friend Christelle Berthon had mentioned to me that she had just come from the Suzuki booth, and that they had a new fantastic harmonica out called the Manji. She had one, and asked me to play it. From the very start, I noticed how good it felt in my hands. I started playing it, and was amazed by the volume, the warm tone coming from it, and its overall clarity. Cool! I then started playing it harder, pushing more air into it, and noticed that it would not stall out. The Manji lets you play with confidence knowing that the notes will be there for you. I played it softly and could do the overblows with ease, and still retain the overall volume and tone that I demand. The Manji is by far the best diatonic harmonica "Out of the Box". Suzuki's advanced technology, styling and performance makes the Manji "The Harmonica" for both novice and professionals. Can't miss with the Manji!"

"Along the diatonic harmonica history, lots of things have been tried to make this instrument sounded great, but Manji Suzuki and his team have succeed to produce the impossible: a diatonic that keeps the tradition of the blues but the ability to be ready for the modern way of playing with overbends...the Manji M-20. I find this instrument so easy to play that it's useless to have very expensive customized harmonicas of any kind: the comb will last for ever (thanks to the high technology employed using the resin and wood fibers) and the adjustment of the reeds allows you to concentrate on the most important thing: the music. All that for a price that no one has never dreamt of. Sure I will never leave my Manjis behind me (they come in all 12 keys, plus low F and high G) they're now my best companions."

"Over the last 15 years, I have been focused on perfecting my craft, blues harmonica. My dedication to playing and teaching this instrument has led me to almost every brand and type of 10 hole diatonic harmonica available on the market.  I can honestly say that the Suzuki Manji has exceeded all of my expectations when it comes to playability, tone and durability. Suzuki's dedication and commitment to the quality of their instruments is second to none!"

"Suzuki Fabulous blues harmonica responds beautifully to both smooth over bends and heavy bluesy playing. It over blows out of the box, and has proven to be reliable and durable in heavy professional use. My favorite blues harp nowadays."?Jouko Kyhala

"Usually four octave chromatics suffer either of weak bottom octave or shrieking top octave. Suzuki Fabulous four octave chromatic is the first long chromatic that I can really enjoy playing throughout the whole range of the instrument. It feels like a serious pro instrument in your hands."

 "The incredible sound of this Suzuki harmonica and purity of its notes make it one of the best diatonic harmonicas today. Blues, Country, Rock, Folk, Jazz ... it is possible to perform any style with it because the precision manufacturing and production of Manji M-20 allows all musical notes are fully heard, and in turn, the effects that musicians normally use have perfect sound quality which is certainly one reason for the popularity of Suzuki Harmonicas."

"I play with HA-20 and MR-350 a lot. Both are very solidly built. Though I play my harmonicas several hours a day at home, in the studio and on stage I usually keep the same harmonica for months! I also like to use the new MR-200 Harpmaster, which I feel is a lot 'Punchier' than other plastic comb harmonicas; ideal for Blues, Country Music and acoustic sessions."

"I'm still playing the Suzuki Promaster Valved (MR-350V) because I can't find a better harmonica. I love the Promaster Valved because of its beautiful, round, warm and powerful tone. The reed plates last much longer than any other make and you don't have to blow or exhale hard to get a beautiful sound. The Suzuki Promaster Valved is still the number 1 for me!"

Suzuki produces durable quality harmonicas with high level performance and we appreciate their accomplishments in designing superior instruments."

"Whether I'm playing Tango, Jazz, Classical, Blues, or Samba, Suzuki has the right harmonica for the job. The SCX-64 Chromatix gives me the range I need and a clear tone that rings out whether amplified or acoustic. The MR-550 Pure Harp is warm and responsive and the rosewood is beautiful to hold and behold."

"The HA-20 is a good-looking and nicely designed diatonic, with an excellent overall finish. It plays well straight out-of-the-box, but most important is its remarkable smooth velvet-like sound and the fact that it has proved to be very durable! The SCT-128 Tremolo Chromatic is a true vibrant chromatic that seems to appeal to both ears and eyes. Great to have a chromatic with a totally different sound!"

"The SCT-128 is a revolution in the present harmonica world. It enables the traditional diatonic tremolo harmonica to enter the chromatic family, thus offering new choice repertoires. This instrument is also perfectly adapted to world music performances. To marry tremolo diatonic with chromatic; a great idea and a success for Suzuki Music Corporation."

"At the GSHC Festival 2006, I purchased a Suzuki 48-Chord harmonica. This instrument is very well made. The reeds are welded to the reed plate, and it has a rich, full sound. This chord harmonica is extremely responsive and a pleasure to play. Also available from Suzuki is a long microphone that covers all 48 chords that can be attached to the hinges on both ends of the chord. All in all, I am very happy with this instrument, and would recommend it highly."

I mostly play the HA-20, MR-300 Overdrive, MR-350 Pro master and now also the new MR-550 Pure Harp. They are wonderful and unique, with a sound reminiscent of the 1920's.

"I play Suzuki harmonicas because I find their response very fluid and lightning fast. At times I play very fast chromatic lines and the Suzuki harmonica is always on the money. I play the Suzuki SCX-64 Chromatix, SCT-128 Tremolo Chromatic, and MR-350 Promaster Diatonic. I love these because they are very well constructed, and fit all of my needs. Frankly though, they are the very best harmonicas I've ever played."

"I have played the 48-Chord Harmonica for 4 decades of my life. But the day that I first played the Suzuki SCH-48 Orchestral Chord Harmonica, I couldn't believe the sound that I was able to produce with this instrument. Every chord on the SCH-48 had equal compression, as well as consistency in tone quality and tuning of the 384 reeds across the entire instrument. The quality of this instrument is stellar, right out of the box, and is an absolute pleasure to play with our harmonica trio."
