Yamaha makes wonderful acoustic pianos. They make (or made)
a really good electronic equivalent of the Hammond organ.
OTOH, I had one of their electronic keyboards, and I found it
to be unimpressive, and gave it away. But they must be
doing something right. I wonder how a piano company can
make motorcycles and hard drives? Or is it the other way
around: how a motorcycle company can make hard drives and pianos?
I have a feeling that the technology must be there. I hope it is
not poor manufacturing, as I have come to respect the Yamaha name.
