I have not seen one. I like tuning Yamahas quite a bit. What is it about the tenor section on the U3, UX3, and the U5? I'm quite interested as I highly recommend Yamahas to my customers that ask. If they are going to stick with a vertical, I want them to replace their 1958 Hamilton, or Acrosonic, or Wurlitzer with a Yamaha!
