Winslow:  In Sacramento I gave Tom Stryker the first copy of  a DVD I taped 
of a seminar from SPAH 2007, with a few chromatic  players and which I'm 
fairly sure included Bob Herndon and his Harmonetta. I  haven't yet sent 
copies out to the other on-stage players, but perhaps Tom could  make it 
available to Bob Cohen for those interested in the Harmonetta to hear  and view at 
the new SPAH.org site?
 
 I believe Bob Herndon maintains his own Harmonetta? I  haven't watched it 
in a while.

Harmonettas  have not been manufactured for several decades; I'm not sure 
just when Hohner  stopped making them. They're a great idea but never quite 
caught on, perhaps  because the chord harmonica was so well established.

You can find them  from time to time being sold both privately and at 
auction. For several years  John Infande in Florida was the main guy refurbishing 
them; I'm not sure whether  he's still active.

Does anybody actually sell Harmonettas anymore?  Are they  even made?
