friend bought a low E marine band 1896 from rockin' rons and gave it to me to customize.
the blister pack was clearly labeled LE.
anyway, i opened the package,pulled some nails from the coverplates and started drilling for 1/72 slotted pan heads.
got the first two drilled and looked up in horror at the box.
the box label read low F.
looked at the harp;indeed, low F.
guess hohner or rons people mis-labled it.
oh well.

Someone should have told BP.

MP,
I'm pretty sure Ron will make it right if you have your friend bring the mix-up to his attention.
