Here's a review of three very different but impressive new chromatic harmonicas from China:

Does the Kongsheng have the zig-zag layout like the Hohner CX-12, or does it have a straight layout like Hohner 270 or Seydel Deluxe and Saxony?

Triona, the Kongsheng has the zig-zag layout like the Hohner CX-12...

good health

Thanks for the info.
I hoped it would be not like this. The modularity of the model's idea with easy change of the reedplates and comb unit would be more versatile then. But it is like it is. They copied the down side of the model as well.

Let's hope -- after Kongsheng's initial development of the KB-12 -- that offering a KB-12 Mk2 (with straight tuning) would be relatively easy.
