Hi Gordon, You are way off side once again. Please check your facts. They are made to the same grade of construction, but there are several models, with different features offered. E.g. Play back only, record/play back ect. The Disklavier is offered for most Yamaha models. So there is choice for the consumer. The price difference of a GC1 and C1 grand will make it obvious to the consumer that there must be a difference in GRADE of these two grands. The price of the Disklavier, if it's the same featured unit, is the same for both grands. There is a fair amount of standardization of manufacture of the mechanics and electronics, for production. Just added Features for the top of the line Disklaviers. Regards Roger
