The original poster has a good ear. They sound different because they
are tuned differently. Lee Oskars are equally tuned, which basically
means single note runs sound nice, two or more notes played together
do not. Marine Bands are compromised just tuning, which means single
notes sound not as nice, two or more notes sound beautiful.
Perhaps someone else will do the honors of explaining the two tunings,
I have to go.
