Fred... I'd love to keep posted on how the Petrof holds up in comparison 
to the Yamahas. Petrof, which basically has a nice sound, has a real bad 
reputation over here for lots of shody workmanship... but these past few 
years have made a marked improvement in their quality control. So it 
would be interesting to hear how you feel one of their new instruments 
hold up under hard use.
