Just in case they've corrected it by now.

My other melodeon's a fiddle, but one of my Hohners has six strings! I also play a very red Hawkins Bazaar in C and a generic Klingenthaler spoon bass in F.!! My other pets (played) are gobirons - Hohner Marine Band in C, Hohner Tremolo in D and a Chinese Thingy Tremolo in G.

But then, the Eagle Music website still offers the Lillium, which has been out of production for the best part of a decade!  So many traders have a website, but don't bother to keep it up to date, it doesn't encourage the punters...

My experience was that they had nothing in stock except bottom end hohners and lots of banjos. The prices they quote for actually getting a costaloti were massively higher than the prices on there site at the time.
