The 1847 CLASSIC is the perfect example of a timeless classic - because: “ Classic never goes out of style .”

Paddy Richter Tuning : Compared to the Richter tuning, the blow note in channel 3 is tuned a whole tone higher in this tuning. This makes the Paddy Richter tuning especially suitable for Irish folk (fast playing in second position).

The sealed maple comb and stainless steel reeds create a balanced sound. The classically shaped coverplates without side vents perfectly complement the traditional style, featuring the iconic 1847 imprint. The wide opening projects the sound directly to your audience.
