The Hohner Cross Harp is part of their MS, or Modular System, line. The thing that makes the line unique is that each of the MS line harmonicas have interchangeable combs, covers, and reed plates. That makes it easy to customize the Hohner Cross Harp and other Hohner MS harps, which is a good thing because the Cross Harp might need a bit of adjustment, depending on how you plan to use it. For example, it doesn’t have a very bluesy sound out of the box. Also, it tends to have some air leakage problems until the reed spacing is tweaked a bit. That being said, it is a great harp for those that like to bend and experiment.
PROS
Interchangeable parts with other MS line harps
CONS
Not good for playing the blues
Will probably need reed tweaking and adjustment, making it not good for beginners
