I currently have a student (and quite a good one) who plays on a Yamaha
34. She had it overhauled before reporting to college at the end of
August, and it has all the characteristics of the top of the line Yamaha
72's.

I've also had a student who played a 52 with great success. They're good
solid quality instruments.
