Yamaha WX-7 model

[piannaman at aol.com]

The WX 7 was a really nice piano.  So was the WX 3.  I believe the backposts were in the shape of an X, among other things.  These are among the easiest pianos I've ever tuned.  
 
As Joseph said, the buying public would not be able to appreciate big enough differences between the WXs and the U series to justify the much larger expenditure.  Too bad.

The WX-7 was replaced by the U5 (I believe) which is now again going to be
replaced by a newer version.  The U5 is a very nice upright.  A customer of
mine just bought one (top jazz musician), and he's thrilled.

   25 years tuning, and tuned a WX-7 Yamaha for the 
first time yesterday, and I have allot of nice pianos
in by database now, lots of U1-2-3 pianos. They must
not have sold a ton of these "WX" pianos.
  
   What a beautiful instrument. Agraffs throughout the
bass and tenor sections, nice mahogany hammers, true
sostenuto pedal, strings render smoothly, clean sound,
great instrument.

   Are these still in production, or the equivalent?
A little history, more comments on Yamaha's upper end
uprights would be of interest.
