Here are a couple I've been working on. I have some combs and an A Golden Melody coming from Buddha that I'll talk about soon...sounds like he might ship the stuff out this week.

I did tip scoop these with a Dremel, but don't always do that. I am not sure it makes much of a difference in anything.

Mike...interesting reading....and nice sound with the band !! I have been working on my harps as well. I however do not emboss or gap....I guess I don't have the hang of it yet and am tired of screwing up reedplates LOL. I do sand / seal or tape the combs...open up the backs /round off edges of MB's. It still makes a big difference. I also have aquired an old El66- the precurser to the 57 and have talked to Greg about "Ultimizing"it.

One step at a time !!
