No, they make them but they are rarely ordered. Mines is at
the high end of my gig case.

With all respect to the emminent Mr. Leone, I don't believe this is correct. I used to buy harmonicas directly from the distributor, and was informed that both low and high tunings were no longer being made. It's still perhaps possible to find new-old-stock in inventory somewhere, but I don't believe they're coming out of the factory in these keys these days.

Ok, I'll buy that for a dollar. I have one with the red plastic comb. I got it at the same time as an F# because the dist. (B. Li'l Harp Hse) said that they didn't have these high keys in my (personal) preference, which is spl-20s. They could very well have been new old stock. I should have verified if my information was stale before I posted. I apologize. Thanks Tim.

Perhaps John Watts will weigh in on this topic.
