Hi All

Actually the XB-40 is REALLY a brand new design. From what I've understood, there is a new "hidden" reed in each hole that allows to bend both the blow and draw notes. The bending ability depends on the tuning of this hidden reed and I think that hohner has tuned it to allow to obtain all the notes of the chromatic scale by bending (no overblow) the blow and draw notes. When I've time, I'll try to give you an excerpt of the reviews that can be found on harp-l
