I had the opportunity to apply Yamaha voicing skills to one of these
pianos, along with string leveling, traveling, spacing, and fitting the
hammers to the strings at the bass/tenor break.

Surprisingly, one hammer on the tenor side was the worst offender, just
stuck out like a sore thumb.  Once that was corrected, the evenness of tone
fell right into place!

This Yamaha is a sweet sounding piano and is nestled in a gorgeous new home.
