: Are there any melodicas out there that use steel reeds? Or another ferromagnetic material. Most Harmonicas use Brass reeds, I think Seydel is the only exception, who make the "session steel", a stainless steel reeded harmonica.

Or another ferromagnetic material.

Most Harmonicas use Brass reeds, I think Seydel is the only exception, who make the "session steel", a stainless steel reeded harmonica. Seydel don't make melodicas apart from one toy one though.

Does anyone know if anyone makes steel (or other ferromagnetic alloy) reeded melodicas?

The Borel Clavietta used a stainless steel read; however, I cannot find information on its ferromagnetic properties.
This discussion from the website Melodicaworld makes mention of the Clavietta and it's stainless steel reeds.
Here is a listing that specifically mentions the "Swedish stainless steel" reed type.
