Rockin Ron tells me Hohner discontinued the Slide Harp a year or so ago, so does that make the Koch the only Richter tuned "chromatic" harp left out there today?

Subject: [Harp-L] Koch Chromatic

Hello all. I'm working on a Koch 10 hole chromatic. Any tips on reducing leakage? I did find that the slider is off to the right just a tad and needs to be tweaked in. I also hear a little "clicking" from what I presume are the windsavers on a couple of reeds. I'm not seeing any cracks in the comb, at least from the outside. Anything else I should be looking for? How about the slide itself? Are these generally lubricated with something? Thanks! -chuck
