I see that no one has jumped back in on this. Perhaps because the Puck isn't one of Hohner's best-selling pro blues harps? A few years ago while on vacation I found a G Puck on deeply-discounted sale (e.g., $1.99) at a music store that was going out of business due to the owner's retirement, and figured, "what the heck." It's small, and really cute. It actually plays pretty well (OK bends on the 2 and 4 draws), but you really have to think SMALL when you play it. Since then (and before the current pandemic) I've found that the best use is to pull it out during a jam in C and quote Al Pacino in "Scarface," i.e., "Say hello to my little friend." People giggle when I pull this tiny little thing out of my pocket, and then giggle even more when they hear it, and discover that one can actually play the darn thing. Be sure to keep the tiny little plastic box. Fits great in one's toilet article case while travelling. Seriously, I suspect that someone in the Chinese factory Hohner contracted to manufacture this tiny gem said, "Hey, let's fool those folks in Germany by making a teensy-tiny harp that actually sounds cool!" Enjoy it. But don't throw away your Marine Bands, Rockets, Special 20s, etc.
