Helleburg -- what did I buy?

Wait... who is
Helleburg?
The mouthpiece says HELLEBERG, but the box is spelled wrong. Counterfeit? Or did Conn-Selmer forget how to spell his name all of a sudden?
Also, how could you even tell a real from fake mouthpiece? Because even the real Conn Helleberg only says HELLEBERG, right?

I would have put an "h" at the end.

Is it spelled the same way on the mouthpiece?

Spelled correctly on the mouthpiece (and otherwise, looks normal on the mouthpiece)

Have you contacted the Cyborg directly to see if it is real, because if the mouthpiece is a real 120S, you will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

It doesn't matter how it is spelled. It's going to make you a legend.
