Re: [Harp-L] Range



Seydel also makes a Low Low F !

I was reminded at the Buckeye, that these Seydel 
Low harps should not be stored laying flat, due 
to the added weight (solder) on these low reeds.  

So store them standing up (holes on top) or 
vertically (like in the Hetrick harmonica case).
