But did you consider, that if you change bottom to top and vice versa, you will change right and left as well? And that the length of the reeds get shorter from left to right? The incessions in the coverplates seem to have different length, fitting to the length of the respective reed, not to talk a...

Triona: I did not expect Seydel would make any reality of this, rather that they both have the tools and opportunity to do it. 8-) I understand that many in most cases concentrate on the ordinary for the bigger mass and not for them few who wants the extraordinay. It would be harder to survive if t...

@ availability: ... 1. It will only be produced when there are at least 20 orders until the last day of June 2019. (In this case I expect that these will come.) Hence it will not be delivered before the middle of July 2019 at least. *) edit: This is an error. I talked to Florian once more to resolv...

I imagine that the sliders need to have some friction to not move too easy. Have a look on the All Minor's coverplates: 1. https://up.picr.de/35926623qb.jpg 2. https://up.picr.de/35926622pl.jpg 3. https://up.picr.de/35926714ik.jpg 4. https://up.picr.de/35926715kd.jpg 5. https://up.picr.de/35926716r...

Seems to be plenty of possibilities to experiment with. The mixolydian scale in first position is only one, but a very interesting variation. If top and bottom coverplates are interchangeable is a thing that is to try and to prove. But maybe it will not work, depending on the direction of the slide...

And here you can have a look on what Seydel made out of this idea:

I think I'll get a set of paddy richters and keep my standard set also. Best of all choices certainly. So you can always choose the harp suited best for the very piece to play. And to talk about third position minor: For this I like very much " D ale King O pen I rish T uning" (= "Do it"). If you d...

Thanks for this first short review.
