Hi all, One of my clients, who is a fine jazz pianist, is looking for a replacement grand piano for his home recording studio. I suggested that he should seek out a late model Yamaha C5, since it is the only C5 with a respectable string scale (the earlier models all had the dropping tension problem in the low treble due to the slight hockey stick turn-in). Also, in the latest model, Yamaha have finally done away with the suspended bass bridge, which is another plus (I realise that the C3 is still plagued by this problem, and the resultant short back scale in the low singles - unfortunately, this is almost a generic problem with 6' grand pianos). I have recommended the C5 to quite a few folks based in my positive experience with them in recent years. My client is looking for a second hand instrument since he is also budget limited. My question to the Yamaha-files amongst you is; At what serial no. range was the latest scale design introduced?
