Ah man, that's one of the lone keys I hadn't upgraded to GM (after my initial hook on Sp20 and MBD). Now I might have too.
I have found so far btw, that the good ones to get are the ones with the silverish screws. They are better then the ones with goldish screws, and I believe them too be the newer sort. Has anybody else found this? I refuse to buy the goldish ones, and haven't had a lemon in quite some time.

@timeistight Yes, my wife is from Montmatre and we were staying in my mother in laws flat, very old, damp and dusty.
She is 93 and is now in an amazing futuristic old peoples home about 45 minutes walk and is happy there with caring staff etc
I always call in to that store, they have every harp variety and with the euro exchange rate it is competitive

@nick 34 euros is steep though. I get mine for 28 euros via Thomann (who also deliver to france: http://www.thomann.de/fr/search_dir.html?xsid=047b0736f90bce26929b88208b461f56&sw=golden+melody+G&x=0&y=0) for 27 euros..
No need to not go to your local store. Mine gives me the Thomann price when asked for!
