Perhaps it's the Lee Oskar repair kit that looks suspiciously like a jewel thief's 2nd story  kit - (the large Lee Oskar chisel could actually do some serious damage in the hands of a terrorist), or it might be the Smokey amp in a Winston hardpack that they find "interesting". They eventually let me board the plane. I still find that amazing!    

That's funny.  I travel a fair bit and have NEVER been hassled when 
tossing a few harps in my carry on bag.  I leave from Boston or 
Providence and go to destinations throughout the US.  Strange.  perhaps 
I look more respectable ;-)
