Thanks. I didn't know that. In fact, I don't know
anything whatsoever about welding.

Sorry about the cross-post. I just hit "respond to
all" without regard to all the places it had been
originally posted.

Will do. And I can ask for Os Leguizamo about reed
replacement, right? Got it.

Hey, I was just asking a question. Yes, it's a
public forum. I thought maybe, just maybe, others
on this list may have similar questions about these
great harps, and that maybe, just maybe, someone on
this list might have an answer or two. 

I wasn't trying to be unfair to anyone. I don't
even own a trumpet. I don't think I a public
chastisement was called for, in CAPITAL LETTERS, no
less. 

Anyway, your suggestion of contacting the
manufacturer is a good one. Thanks.

P.S. If you have more to say to me about this
matter, please be kind enough to take it offlist.
