Looks like high pitch.
Here's a standard pitch Monster that is only a year newer for vintage fans.

You are correct, that is a GRBIC Monster.YORK-aholic wrote:That one is a Grand Rapids Band Instrument Co version. I'm curious, how did you determine the date of manufacture for it? I didn't think there was a serial number list for GRBI Co. I'd be interested to see a list if there is one.bigtubby wrote: Here's a standard pitch Monster that is only a year newer for vintage fans.

Yes, that's interesting. A couple of notes however:humBell wrote:http://www.ebay.com/itm/152543109700
I been eyeballing this as well. Closer to me. Have even picked something up from the seller before. Not quite the same as the others, what with a +1 and all.

Good eyes! That loop just after the +1... (and also knowing the maker well enough to lok for it i presume)windshieldbug wrote:bigtubby wrote:Seller says "Low Pitch" but I doubt it.humBell wrote:http://www.ebay.com/itm/152543109700
It has the 1903 patent High/Low Pitch loop, so it is.
