Hi Ron,
Have to agree that these pianos were made purposely with defects to compete
with the Korean made pianos and to promote the non H models.  Problem is
that though the factory and their marketing machine may see it that way,
someone forgot to tell the sales people what the differences are so they
just sell them.

The 5 star hotel at Ayres Rock (Central Australia) has one and I have to ask
Why ?
Who sold it to them ?, but hey, they just want a piano that looks right at
the cheapest price. I believe that the sales staff of the various music
stores should be more informed about the products they sell, but, how many
of the sales type people care about quality, all they want to do is sell and
stay in business. Sometimes staying in business is better than selling
quality.

It was on a GH1 that I found out that Yamaha's specs on the una corda pedal
had changed so I wonder what else has changed ?

Regards

Tony Caught
