You are correct, the replacement MS plates are better than the original Big River plates. But you are still better off with a Lee Oskar or Hohner special 20. I don't know of a single pro player that likes the MS models including 1 or 2 players that work for the Hohner Co. But, it's all personal preference.
Good luck,

: I've got a dead Big River.
: I was thinking about replacing the reeds in a different key (yes, I know that the replacement plates cost more than a Big River). According to Hohner, the replacement plates are better than the originals.
: Does anybody have any experience with using replacement plates in Big Rivers?
