Used Yamahas

[Rob Goodale]

I would definitely say too high, particularly for the one with some bridge
roll and little crown.  Sight unseen I would put them closer to $12,000.
The C-7 sounds better but I'd like to see it somewhere closer to about
$20,000, maybe less.

Let me guess, university pianos??
