I just don't like the marketing angle.

It is a little confusing when we put "hand built replicas of familiar classics" on the Professional series. It was just an oversight because that's what the original Professional series was about. However, if you take a look at the series now, it includes the RM-5C, which is not a replica of anything. So, the statement doesn't hold true and again was just an oversight. I am in the process of scoping out our website and updating it. That was just one of the things that hadn't been updated yet.
