Seek Polyphon 11" Comb

How heartbreaking! Did you need an upper or lower comb? I have
a 'perfect' upper off a Regina (has shaped teeth). Depending on
the damper system you have on yours it could work as they're tuned
the same.

I also have a lower comb that someone painted silver; it too has
shaped teeth. That one would need a few leads.
