Re: reeds that won't sound (now CX-12 carrying case)

[Jason Rogers <jasonrogers@xxxxxxx>]

Beautiful!  

I would definitely not have come across a stun-gun case on an average day.  
But I think I'll give it a try... 

I was just walking around my house keeping my harp on me to try and keep it 
warm - but wondering how I was going to keep from dropping it sooner or 
later.

Thanks.
