Just as the "Hallet, Davis & Co." is a China manufactured stencil
piano (aka American Sejung), the  current Cable-Nelson piano's
relationship with the original company is about 0 %. It's all
marketing smoke & mirrors and it has been going on for over a century
here in the USA.
The Good News is that it appears to be a quality Yamaha product. But
that's just based on inspecting a number of them at the PTG Institute
in Rochester last year.
Any of you working with Yamaha dealers have any comments on what
you've experienced?
