Do the U5's have that huge iH jump from wound to plain that the U3's do? --Cy-- ABQ, NM ----- Original Message ----- From: David Love To: 'College and University Technicians' Sent: Friday, September 05, 2008 6:57 PM Subject: Re: [CAUT] uprights You can buy 2 (maybe 3) Yamaha U5s for the price of one K52. Better and cleaner sounding, easier to tune and service, easier to turn over should you decide to go that route. It's a no brainer for me. I find the 1098's wirey sounding full of falseness, difficult and unrewarding to tune. Bostons I find also hard to tune (too enamored of tight tuning pins), cold and dry sounding. David Love davidlovepianos at comcast.net www.davidlovepianos.com List, My school is interested in a large purchase of pianos...10 or more. They are talking with Steinway. The Boston would be included in the upright part of the purchase or the K52. Opinions on the bigger Boston uprights and the K52. Obviously, you can probably get 2 Bostons for the K52, but is the K52 a decent piano these days?
