Damn it Bobbie! Why did you have to give away the secret? I've guarded it for thirty years and you have to blow the gaff! (gaffs have dual reeds in each hole, tuned in Mixolydian minor plus three beats on 2nd. and 4th) I've a good mind to tell about the fantastic job you have been doing on my new design, but I won't say that is better than the ideas I had originally. Either watch the Olympics or Bobbie thinking... results the same, pure gold
