there are some in this forum who modify their harps by changing the cover plates-hohner offers cover plates for nearly all their harps-what sort of modifications do you do to a sp20 to put on big river or marine band covers?

hey george,

i'm not sure about the size of big river cover plates fitting on a Special 20.
now, MB 1896 coverplates fit perfectly on SP/20s. chromaticblues does this mod all the time. you just have to measure and drill accurately for the SP20/screws. chro buys new MB plates w/out the nail holes in them yet. though you can remove the nails from old plates,drill, and it'll work fine. it will look funny but what do i know?
