C3 is/was the "Conservatory" equivalent of the G3. If I recall correctly, 
the major difference between the two was case/rim construction.  Core wood 
was either leuan(spelling?) or 'select hardwoods'. I think there might even 
have been some hammer differences. An Yamaha expert will, no doubt, 
correct/amend this recollection.
