Does anyone know what the difference is between a Hohner Marine Band harp and a Hohner MBC Marine Band harp? I see a good deal on a five pack on Amazon but the "MBC" has me puzzled. Thank you.

I think it just means ‘case’ of 5.

I’ve had s look around and now I’m certain the MBC applies to the ‘marine band case’ of 5 harps
The crossover for instance is the mbx
The tbird is the mbxl (marine band xover low)

It’s not some unusual tuning or anything like that.
The main concern probably should be that you found them as a good deal on Amazon. I seem to hear a disproportionate number of complaining reports about the good deal harps on Amazon. I think maybe sometimes that stuff is cheap for a reason, but I couldn’t begin to guess how anyone would know the product was sub-par prior to the retail point so I’m probably dreaming
