...........however I am, and I am very much looking forward what you will 
find out.
A short correction: webpage is www.seydel1847.com
The direct link to Hochlandsklaenge is

For I was a pure Blues player when I came to Seydel in August this year, I 
never was involved into playing this harmonica before. One evening, when the 
workers had been gone and the factory was empty and silent I decided to look 
after the Hochlandsklänge, because I had to put it on the website for sale.
I started playing and it was amazing. It just went on, driftin' and driftin' 
playing a sort of melodies somewhere in the folk and Irish corner. Since 
then I love it and I am astonished about the construction of the wooden comb 
that is still made like around 1920. It's a very rough, but charming finish 
and as I said, the sound is amazing.

Well, subtract what you think I say as a Sales Manager here, however, I am a 
player too and that's what I found out about this instrument.

Thank you very much, and I am very much looking forward in your analysis, 
HOJO

Yours
Michael from Seydel
