Yamaha csg

I read hear sometimes about the new Yamaha csg but i could never try it. Is it German bore? Or is it similar to a Signature ( with a little bit more resistance than a buffet?) Normally I am used to play german and I struggle with my E13 ( I use Viotto G3 and Vandoren White Master 3) because a total lack of resistance which makes me problems to avoid a thin quirky sound in the upper clarion... Signature is much better.. how can i rate the csg here?

The CSG claim is that it has a hybrid bore featuring benefits of both French and German bore. I don't really find it very German in its feel. I had Wurlitzer 100Cs and there is NO similarity between the two. I think it is best to think of the CSG as a really good French style clarinet......that's all. If you need German specs, Yamaha makes German system horns that are MUCH less expensive the H. Wurlitzer.

I've also been hearing alot about them. I currently play on a SEV (that I absolutely love), and I'm wondering how they would compare. Has anyone made the comparison? Or between the CSG and CSVs?
