Some wrote that the Marine Band 364 and Marine Band 365 are "essentially
the same instrument" except for the extra holes on the 365. I disagree.
In my experience the 365 has significantly lower profile cover plates
than the 364. That was a very pleasant surprise to me because I despise
the fat mouth profile of the 12 hole 364. The 14 hole 365 with its
lower cover plate profile is much more comfortable in my mouth. And
overall I just find it a more "playable" instrument than the 364.
