About us

WE LOVE HARMONICAS !

We are so sure you will love them too, we offer a money back guarantee!

With a combined harmonica experience of over 45 years, Ben Hewlett and Pete Smith created Sonnyboys Music Store in 2008 to provide excellent harmonicas to harmonica players at great prices, and with the minimum of fuss and the maximum transparency.

They located the best sources of harmonica, having got to know personally the people who manufacture instruments. They have visited many harmonica factories including Hohner, Seydel, and four factories in Asia.

Sixteen years of exceptional service later, and they have decided to take a well earned rest - Pete concentrating on new projects and Ben continuing to build on the best, most complete harmonica training courses on the Planet!  

In 2024 Neil Harvey took over Sonnyboy's, with the intention of continuing the great work Pete and Ben started and expanding upon it. His pedigree is very different, with a history in Retail, photography and property and having only recently discovered the joys of the harmonica. But this is a journey which he wants to share with you!

In the meantime, everything will largely stay the same:

  • Order with confidence
  • No quibble money back guarantee if you are not satisfied
  • Just return the goods within 28 days for a refund 
  • Buy direct from a UK stockist who speaks English and has a phone
  • Dispatched quickly by 1st class mail
  • Please note - if you buy products from Ali Express or from China imported to the UK, they might appear to be cheaper but they will take a looooong time to reach you (up to 40 days), are subject to HM customs import duty, vat and Royal Mail handling fee, and if there's a problem or you need to speak to someone or return them to China? ...hmm, good luck.

    "I have loved my harmonica journey so far, and am keen that YOU can have as much fun learning something new as I have!  Not only do I want you to enjoy great, but affordable instruments, but I also want to help you learn to play better and have fun with your harmonicas.

    To help you achieve this, I will give you access to Ben's one-hour beginners course on streamed video, an intermediate and also an advanced course free with all orders."

    There are many other great courses written by Ben (and new ones added regularly) on www.playharmonica.co.uk - including a free introductory course called 'Suck it and See'

    Go well, blow well!
