Product Description ------------------- Blues Bender A professional instrument designed for those learning to play the blues. Designed primarily to make playing and note bending easy for entry level players, the Blues Bender P.A.C. allows everybody access to the bluesy notes needed to make any riff complete. The Blues Bender P.A.C. features “Patented Acoustic Covers” from the Marine Band Harmonica, the all time favorite amongst serious players since 1896.
