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.
