Hello!

I have a Yamaha SE-V and an SE-A.....I think the difference that I, in my unprofessional opinion, can find is the cut of the bell. On the SE-V, the bell has a very cool, I guess, "resonator chamber" or something, cut out near the top of the bell. I think it is supposed to help with resonance. My SE-A does not have this feature. The SE-A is also a wonderful instrument and really matches the sound of my Bb very well. That's the only difference I notice anyway.

I also found the CS-V to be a more 'closed sounding' than the SE-V. But both instruments are very well made and very nice to play.

Good luck!
Heidi
