Ouch!

[Ted Allbritton <ted@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Harpers,

	I've been playing a Steve Baker Special lately. Playing it a lot. So 
much, in fact, that the sharp edge of the reed plates has rubbed the skin 
off my upper lip on each side. Ouch! I greased up my lips and managed to 
keep on honking for awhile, but finally I just had to stop to let my lip 
heal. There must be a way to prevent this. How about taking a file to the 
edge of the reed plates? Has anybody had this problem? I don't usually 
have this happen with regular diatonics, but I slide up and down the SBS 
so much that I've got to do something to make it less abrasive.

Thanks for any suggestion,
