Andy,are the Special 20 replacement plates the hand-mades or are they
like the MS line?
I know the Big River plates aren't the same when you buy replacement
plates.
Does the same hold  true for the Special 20?

Steve replies (Andy is hopefully enjoying his well-earned weekend):

The Special 20 replacement reed plates are hand-made, they wouldn't fit otherwise. MS reed plates are a different size.
As far as I know, the replacement plates sold by Hohner Inc. for all MS models are the thicker 1.05mm ones, whereas the BRH uses 0.9mm plates. The thicker ones fit fine to the BRH and many people prefer them.
